I was born and raised in Aloha, Oregon. I am 23 and have an associate's degree from Portland Community College in Computer Information Services.

I have worked for two years at Intel, one year of which was straight out of high school. While there, I was in charge of computer parts inventory and some computer maintained/installs. I have also worked on testing out networking devices for Intel that were not yet on the market .

My hobbies include modifying computers, photography, working with sound systems, and stamp collecting.

I have worked at my church, Orenco Presbyterian, with computer maintenance and network maintenance. I have also managed the sound system . I have also been in charge of managing the sound system for Sunday services, weddings, funerals, voice/piano recitals, as well as other activities for almost 10 years.
