I am currently a Tumwater, WA resident employed by the Washington State Administrative Office of the Courts in the Operations section. While my work is in programming, my background includes training and work in information architecture, data management and design, user experience, web development, environmental sustainability, writing, knowledge management, editing, and peer-to-peer advising, amongst others. I hold a Master of Science in Information Management from the University of Washington, where my studies focused on information architecture, metadata, and the intersections between information management and environmental sustainability.

I am a frequent writer, video gamer, and business card collector who also enjoys billiards, biking, hiking, camping, writing, reading, and a good play every once in a while. I am happy to be back in the Olympia area, which I fell in love with during my undergraduate work at The Evergreen State College.
