I've been in Higher Ed I.T. for almost 30 years having started as a web developer and working my way up. I've been in Academic Research Computing for about 15 years and at GVSU now since 2022. We oversee the HPCC environment, virtualized computer labs and software for the institution and assist with research consultations where possible. I am a part of our institutions IRB and sit on numerous committees at the university. I'm a lifelong learner and I am currently part of the Emerging Leaders program with the Midwest Research Computing and Data organization.
