I am a recent graduate of Texas State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Digital Media Innovation and a minor in Theater. In a past life I was a nuclear power plant operator and licensed engineer, so I’m thrilled that the degree plan I just finished is classified as a STEM degree.

I’ve always had a knack for both vertical and horizontal thinking, which allowed me to do well in both a nuclear propulsion plant environment and pursue innovation fields. Over the last five years I’ve been able to put both backgrounds to work as a product manager, product creator, and UX design manager for a nonprofit organization based out of Texas that does social welfare lobby work. This has allowed me to take on creative projects and come up with unique strategies to address local versus statewide issues, on both a macro and micro scale for each. The best part of it all is that this allows to me to love the work that I do, as the work I do would be hobbies for many other people.

Over this past decade plus I have developed a varied skill set with electronic design, front and backend web development, FTP usage, media design and illustration, advanced social media analytics, UX design, Adobe Creative Cloud apps, text editors, Microsoft Office 365, Figma, Canva, a few AI based applications both as standalone apps and web based, along with other programs and software.
