Me during the Crazylegs Classic 2008

I’m currently a Senior attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison majoring in Computer Sciences.

My primary personal interest is running. From 2003-2006, I was on Kenosha Bradford’s Track Team where I ran the 110M High Hurdle and 300M Intermediate Hurdle races. My favorite race is the 300M hurdles, and by my senior year had one of the fastest times for that event from my school (I don’t remember the exact ranking, but it was around 9). I’ve been running when I can since then, and in 2008 I ran my first 8k during the Crazylegs Classic. I ran it again this year, and loved it! (despite the pouring rain) On May 24th, I ran my first quarter-marathon.

Eventually, I want to continue my education after undergraduate and get a master’s/doctorate. There is only enough time to cover basics in undergraduate classes, and the only way to learn more about a particular field is to go to graduate school. I’m also contemplating going into research, and I’m hoping a master’s program with a thesis will help me decide if it’s something I want to pursue.

I can be reached via E-Mail.
