Extreme Problem Solver & Experienced Strategist
Charlottesville, Virginia Area
I am, through training and experience, a highly skilled chemical and process engineer. I am an expert in the collection and analysis of process data for the purpose of optimization, troubleshooting or insight. I am a designer, a creator, a dreamer and a maker. I have an insatiable curiosity for understanding the world around me and a strong desire to explore and manipulate our environments more richly. I also have a strong interest in the use of computers as an interface and as a tool, and have been fiddling with them in one way or another for almost 22 years.
