My animating passion is for exploration and to discover new connections and patterns in the world around us. After studying Music History at Reed College, I started working in Portland, Oregon area non-profits, completing successful terms in administrative and operations roles at an organization dedicated to youth and family services, then performing arts.

In March 2020, I was an essential part of pivoting the Portland Baroque Orchestra to an all-digital season, procuring equipment, doing preproduction work, and contributing directly as a recording assistant and video editor. In autumn 2021, I left PBO to pursue more challenging and stimulating work.

In the first half of 2022, I completed the Epicodus Full-Stack bootcamp (C#/.Net/React track). After a successful internship with itOS, I was hired to join their small development team prototyping a product for the IT services sector. In the summer of 2023, that project was shut down and I am currently looking for new opportunities.
