Experience

I am currently a Software Developer on the Microsoft Payments team. I work on deploying and maintaining services for the Microsoft Store.

I have a range of experience from aviation to software development and networking.  Below you’ll find a few of the non-school projects I had the privilege to work on.  You can find more examples of my work on my GitHub repository and a full work history on my resume (download PDF).

Aviation

For nearly a decade prior to starting my degree, I was (and still am) a Certified Flight Instructor for single and multi-engine, instrument-rated airplane flying. The high success rate of my students earned me the coveted FAA Gold Seal certificate.

I worked for aviation companies in Cape Cod and Seattle, most recently Wings Aloft on Boeing Field. I was primarily a flight instructor but I also have experience with scenic flights and some maintenance work.

I’m passionate about using my skills to dig through multifaceted problems and coming up with (and sometimes shipping) solutions which not only make problems go away, but make people say “neat!”

I will be receiving my Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and Software Engineering from the University of Washington in March 2017. While at UW, I developed strong interests in databases, cybersecurity, and finding ways to make code efficient and clean.
