I am a professional software developer who ran a consulting and product development company for many years before closing up shop in 2017 and returning to school for an MS in Information Management from the University of Washington Information School (graduated 2018).

As a developer, I have a passion for solving problems using Python, R, C/C++, C#, Java, .NET, HTML, JavaScript, as appropriate. As an information manager and data scientist, I want to use the most convenient tools available (Tableau, Power BI, Excel, etc.) to grok data and transform it into a productive asset. But what I find most rewarding are the opportunities to help my associates and coworkers maximize their potential through being a mentor, coach and leader.
