Different fields.
Same curiosity.

I studied philosophy and psychology at the University of Michigan–Flint, then earned a B.A. in Classical Studies at Wayne State University in 2009. Ancient languages, archaeology, and Platonic philosophy shaped the questions I learned to ask.

From 2007 to 2009, I worked as public liaison and grant writer for the ARCHEM Archaeochemistry Project. My academic path also included graduate study and several years working with ARCHEM at the INSTAP Study Center for East Crete.

What carried forwardCareful observation. Context before conclusions. The ability to connect evidence with a human story.

Dates shown cover undergraduate studies and the ARCHEM role listed in my resume. Graduate study and work in East Crete are part of my personal account.

Sales consulting at Dick Scott Motor Mall, followed along the way by recruiting, training, and team leadership at QuinStreet in Portland, Oregon (2014–2015).

Listening, explaining, and finding the real problem became practical skills. They still shape how I lead discovery, demonstrate software, and help people adopt a new workflow.

What carried forwardTranslate complexity. Earn trust. Make the next step understandable.

At Monument Engineering Group (2017–2019), my work crossed forestry, drone operations, and technical recruiting. At Sharon’s Heating & Cooling (2019–2020), I worked in project coordination and operations support. AFA Secured Transport followed in 2020–2021.

Materials, routes, people, equipment, and time: the operational details that later became the subjects of my software.

What carried forwardDesign around the job as it happens, including the parts that never make it into the process diagram.

I joined Viridis Laboratories as a field technician in September 2021, collecting samples and maintaining chain-of-custody records. In 2022, I began using GPT to write Python automation for compliance workflows.

In March 2023, I moved into IT support: enterprise systems, user onboarding and offboarding, software deployment, and Metrc support. I stayed until January 2024.

What carried forwardNotice friction firsthand, build a small solution, and let the result lead to the next question.

Since January 2024, I’ve designed and developed enterprise applications at KW Corporation, working with one collaborator and an AI-augmented workflow.

The work spans ServiceNow and Quickbase, accounting integrations, warehouse management, customer portals, document workflows, and AI-assisted extraction. My responsibilities extend from discovery and architecture to implementation, certification, demonstrations, and ongoing support.

What carried forwardA generalist’s range, applied to software that has to hold up in daily use.
