"I'm a software engineer with more than 15 years of professional experience in development, project guidance, and consulting having worked directly with clients like Nike, Apple, and Extraspace Storage. I was most recently employed at Google, having been sought out for my solution development and client relation expertise. I've mentored teams, clients, and individuals alike to go on to achieve great successes and outcomes in my field. More than just a software head however, I'm also a former circus performer and professional dance instructor, having coached, taught, and competed internationally in standard, Latin, and rhythm dances like Swing, Lindy Hop, Tango, Waltz, Salsa, and more. Currently, I'm working on my undergraduate degree in Electrical Engineering before turning to Law where I will be looking to become involved in government policy and technology.

My unique background has taught me a variety of skills and ways to communicate and motivate individuals to achieve their very best. I love being able to help people learn and grow and cultivating curiosity and passion gives me a deep sense of satisfaction. There's nothing quite like witnessing the 'ah-ha' moment in an individual and then watching them exercise their newfound knowledge.

My methods tend to vary from individual to individual. I find that more often than not, it's an issue of motivation. When people become interested in a thing, they will want to know a thing and when a person wants to know a thing, there's little you can do to stop them. And where the challenge is in the knowing, the solution is to create pathways that relate their current knowledge and experiences to the deeper understanding being sought." less...
