Education

As a life-long learner, I am always seeking out new information to grow and improve my skills. I gained a solid business background at Ferris State University (GO DAWGS!), before the natural evolution of technology shifted my learning path toward coding. As the world becomes increasingly digital, I realized these technological tools were paramount if you wanted your business to stay competetive. That realization led me to become the developer I am today, hungry for innovation and creation.
