Biographical Sketch: I am the newest member to the System Z R&D team at SAS. I graduated in May 2014 from North Carolina State University with a bachelors in Computer Science. I had worked at SAS as a technical intern doing testing for all but one year of my undergraduate degree. After graduating, I accepted an offer to join the MVS development team. I enjoy outdoor and fitness activities, grappling based martial arts, and learning about new and old technologies. Having attended my first SHARE in Seattle this year, I look forward to the opportunity and the challenge of presenting at the 2015 Orlando event.
