Now that my graduate studies are over, I am free to really learn some things.

Growing up in Idaho and hiking in the Pacific Northwest taught me to enjoy the outdoors and I'm always down for running a beach or hiking a mountain path.

I am people-oriented and have enjoyed experiences most when sharing them with others, whether in management or product development, teaching or research, sports, music, or social dance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

years ago I taught about a thousand children in swimming lessons, and since then have been interested in how people learn anything.
