About
Before my current position I was involved with many facets of transportation. I developed applications that monitor bicycle and pedestrian counts, manage community transportation systems, and improved enforcement of commercial vehicle regulations. I work with fewer groups now and I'm far from transportation, but a love for 'having my fingers in many pies' and urban planning still lingers.
Before being a software engineer, I was in a PhD program in mathematics (where in my spare time I fiddled with Godot and little Javascript web games). Part of my role as a graduate student was lecturing and in my pursuit of being a better educator, I learned about Universal Design for Learning. Eventually, this led to my discovery of UX Design and my realization that I wanted to develop applications that centered the people that use them. So I left with a master's degree to do exactly that.
Also, I read a lot. You can see what through my reading logs.
