About Me

Hello! I hope you're having a great day, and I appreciate you taking the time to take a quick look at my portfolio. A little bit about me... I graduated from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities in 2011 with a Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineerng. My Civil Engineering career began with VAA, LLC where I worked on the design of a wide range of agricultral facitlites and loop track facilities. In 2014, I went to work for Kimley-Horn and Associates. I become a licensed Professional Engineer in the State of Minnesota in 2015. During my employment at Kimley-Horn, my focus was design and project management for multi-family, industrial, and retails projects. My expertise included efficent design and client coordination, and I worked on more than a handful of projects in the City of Minneapolis, and dozens of projects around Minnesota.

Deciding to take my career in a different path, I took some time away from engineering, and have since been working at Oak Hill Montessori working as a Toddler Aide. My next journey consists of goal to pursue a career in Data Analytics and Data Science. I've always had a passion for statstics and data, so I decided to enroll in a 24 week Bootcamp Certificate program at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities in their Data Analytics and Visualization program. The class has finished as of early December 2022 completing the start of my next journey in Data Analytics.
