One of my earliest tech memories is setting up a Minecraft server for my friends and me. This sparked countless hours of enjoyment and solidified my love for computers. Although I didn’t master advanced technology skills, I realized how technology could enhance my life and those around me, influencing my career path significantly.

Driven by my passion for games and computers, I pursued a degree in Computer Science at Grand Valley State University. I chose GVSU after being captivated by my brief visits to Grand Rapids, a city I soon grew to love even more during my college years.

My affection for Grand Rapids led me to Atomic, where I found a company with values that stood out in the consulting world. Acting transparently and thinking long-term resonated with me, qualities rarely emphasized in most consulting firms.

When I'm not coding, you can find me on the soccer field, in the kitchen, or diving into digital worlds.
