About Me

Developer, Opera Singer, Engineer

I have worn each of these hats at some point in my life and each one has taught me something new and exciting. Originally from Chicago, I am driven, passionate, and always seeking tough problems to broaden my horizons.

I started out by getting my Bachelor's Degree in Mechanical Engineering from Northwestern University. At the same time I also received a degree in Vocal Performance and despite the differences between these two fields, it gave me a much wider view of what it takes to solve problems, both technical and personal. I got to tackle real-world problems and deliver real solutions and that was some of the most exciting work I've done.

Now I want to leverage my skills and use both of my backgrounds to develop solutions and build. To accomplish this I am currently enrolled in Eleven Fifty Academy's Web Development course.

Now let's see what problems we can solve together!
