I was born and raised in Savannah, Georgia. Marsh, oak trees, and long Summers. Both my undergrad (BBA in Information Systems, minor in computer informatics) and my graduate degree (MSBA) are from Emory University.
I do my best work when I get to do it hands on. I learn best by doing. Always have. If something's new to me, the fastest way to actually get it is to just start messing around with it, pull it apart, break it, put it back together. That curiosity has fundamentally defined who I am as a person today.
Outside of work, I ride motorcycles, build mechanical keyboards, and put together computers. The throughline is taking things apart, understanding how they work, and putting them back together a little better.
Three bikes, each for a different mood. The Grom for light runs and stunting, the Z400 for long days, and the ZX6R for the track and mountain carving.
Custom builds. Switch films, lubed stems, layouts wired by hand. I've built and collected countless keyboards ranging from old, vintage, and modern.
Built my first computer when I was ten, never really stopped. The current rig doubles for ML/LLM experiments and gaming.
