Graduate school at the University of Montana was an incredible journey. I had the chance to collaborate with inspiring faculty and students and built friendships and intellectual connections that still shape my work today.
Itβs hard to believe that nearly eleven years ago I walked into my first computer science class with Michael Cassens, not knowing it would spark a lifelong passion for technology and problem-solving.
Today, I get to share that passion from two angles I love:
Teaching β as an instructor at the University of Montana, helping students discover their own excitement for computing.
Industry β as a Software Architect at Consumer Direct Care Network, where I design and build systems that make a real difference for the people who rely on them.
Bridging academia and industry keeps me learning, experimenting, and finding creative ways to connect people with technology that matters.
