Biography:
I graduated from Wheaton College in Norton, MA with a degree in Physics in 2004. After college I worked in the High Energy Physics laboratory at Colorado State University automating various parts of high energy physics experiments. It was in the HEP lab at CSU that I taught myself LabVIEW. After CSU I worked for a wind tunnel testing facility in Colorado, automating wind tunnel testing with LabVIEW. While there, I co-founded the Northern Colorado LabVIEW Users Group (NOCLUG). A downturn in the economy led to me moving on to a company specializing in flow measurement test stands and components, where I worked to modify and maintain their suite of LabVIEW test software. I currently work for Bloomy Controls, a Platinum Alliance Partner, where I am a Senior Project Engineer and also the Education Development Manager. In early 2013 I co-founded the Mass Compilers LabVIEW Users Group and today we are a thriving community of LabVIEW users.
