Background

Since my earliest memories on my father’s lap as we played around with his personal computer, I’ve harbored a bleeding passion for technology and for uncovering the deeper meanings behind why things happen and how things manage to work. I’ve built and updated my own personal computers over the years, and I’ve been a regular user of Microsoft Office since I was 9 years old. At one point in the 2nd grade, my teacher even purchased a kid’s electrical circuit learning kit with his own money that I tinkered with behind his desk!

Hailing from a Michigan working-class family, I obtained my Associate’s in Business with Summa Cum Laude honors at Oakland Community College while still in high school; my Bachelor’s in Business Administration with Summa Cum Laude honors at Northwood University; and my Master’s in Business Administration at Northwood’s DeVos Graduate School—all within 4 years. It was during my tenure at DeVos that I became a formally-published essayist through the first volume of Northwood’s Students in Defense of Freedom collection (these can be viewed in the Portfolio tab above).

Outside of my current workplace and my personal projects, I enjoy volunteering for my local church, reading classic books and philosophical magazines, watching American football (go Lions!) and Formula One, and playing multiplayer video games with my group of college friends.
