I’m an Aggie journalist from Waco, living in College Station. I have the privilege to support some pretty awesome research in the social sciences as a programmer and web developer (Ruby, Python, HTML/CSS/SQL). When I’m not working or spending time with family I’m probably organizing get-togethers, engaged in Biblical research, or preparing lessons.
