My educational background is a BS in Information Systems & Computer Science from the University of Montana-Missoula, and M.S. in Water Resources from the University of Idaho-Moscow. Prior to Multnomah County I worked in and around the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness in Idaho on Salmon/Steelhead habitat restoration for the Nez Perce Tribe and US Forest Service as a Watershed Restoration Specialist and GIS Analyst. Currently for Multnomah County my job is split between Pavement and Utility District Management, GIS, and Asset Management. In my free time I enjoy hiking, biking, trail running, and spending time with my wife and daughter.
