�鶹��Ʒ Me

I was born and raised in Mandan, North Dakota. I attended the �鶹��Ʒ for my undergraduate degree in computer information systems. After graduating, I worked in education for 15 years. Following that, I went into the industry as a cybersecurity engineer. After working in the cybersecurity field, I found myself being drawn back into education and look forward to continuing that here at �鶹��Ʒ. I am married and have three children. I enjoy spending time with my family and staying active outdoors.

Why I’m At �鶹��Ʒ

The �鶹��Ʒ is where I got my start in the technology field, and I'm excited to share my experiences and expertise with the �鶹��Ʒ students and community.
