About
Howdy! I'm a senior at the University of Central Arkansas dual-majoring in computer science and cybersecurity with a minor in honors interdisciplinary studies.
My undergraduate research tackles questions about efficacy and inclusivity in cybersecurity and computer science education, and I hope to continue this work in graduate school. Long-term, my goal is to teach cybersecurity and provide training and consulting services. I'm especially passionate about working with students, small businesses, and non-profits.
Outside of research and classes, I'm involved with several student clubs and volunteer organizations in Conway. I helped start the Cybersecurity Club and revitalize the Computer Science Club at UCA, and I currently serve as president of the UCA Ambassador program.
One of my favorite things about working in IT is the opportunity to collaborate with awesome people on impactful projects. If you believe I'd be a good fit for your team or project, don't hesitate to reach out!
