For my formal education, I received a B.Sc. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Kansas. I am also a self-taught programmer and web developer, though I would cite my engineering
degree—which included electrical engineering & computer science classes—as being helpful for picking up many aspects of computer programming. Additionally, my family includes professional artists,
whom I credit for enhancing my appreciation for aesthetic principles relevant to frontend design.
I've worked for a number of years professionally as an Aerospace & Mechanical Engineer in roles as varied as designing systems for space launch vehicles to selling 3D-printed prototypes. I do have sales and project management experience,
but I think I'm happiest and at my best when I'm creating something, especially if the task involves an aesthetic or visual component. If appropriate, I can provide more detailed information regarding my education and
work experience upon request.
