I'm currently a graduate student in Computer Science at Brigham Young University, working in the SEQuOIA Lab. I also participate actively in the BYU Mac Users Group. I'm a software programmer at heart, but I enjoy web programming as well. I hope these links are helpful. If you have questions or contributions, feel free to contact me. Thanks for visiting my site!
