Bio

In fall 2022, I completed my masters in the Data Analytics and Computational Social Science (DACSS) program at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst (formally graduating later this year). My present position is Principal Data Engineer at eClinical Solutions in Mansfield, MA.

I’ve worn many IT hats over the years - sysadmin, DBA, trainer, tech writer - but a day without code is a strange and sad day.
