Summary

 

 

Education

My interest in computers started as an enthusiast. In my early teens, I taught myself to make webpages and manage networks. I learned to be a self-starter and problem solver early on, frequently engineering my own solutions and implementing existing workarounds.

 

Outside of work I love to play drums and guitar, work on car projects, read science fiction, rebuild small engines, play cribbage and board games, as well as draw and paint.
