I handled everything from getting car parts delivered on time to measuring millions of years of Himalayan wear and tear. One question drives my career: How do I make complex systems work for people?

I think of myself as a data detective. Over the years, I’ve worn diverse hats: software developer, project manager, university teacher, and research scientist at CU Boulder. I’ve decoded planet Earth from space. I’ve walked students step-by-step through their first big environment projects. Through it all, I learned that the truest technology makes people feel capable.

Today, I call Calgary home. I am bringing that 'make-it-work' energy into my next adventure: the Clairline Foundry Initiative.

I help people get past that 'where do I start?' feeling with AI. I walk them hand-in-hand until they feel completely confident.

I love swapping perspectives and learning from others. If you want to talk data, AI, geosciences, or just chat over coffee, say hi!
