Originally from Ohio, my career journey has taken me from Indiana to Virginia, Sweden, and finally to the Pacific Northwest, where I've established permanent roots. Although I'm currently transitioning careers, my passion for computers began in my youth and shaped my early professional experiences in IT. I completed an internship with a local government IT department and subsequently spent three and a half years providing help desk support for a small ISP/MSP before eventually moving into digital product design. I'm excited to start a new career in a field that has captivated me since the first time I set eyes on a computer.
