Professional - Having worked at the University of Kansas since 2013, I have collected a vast library of job responsibilities ranging from traditional (maintenance, operations, safety, etc.) to not (building therapist, resident diplomat, "the printer guy"). I have overseen dozens of projects ranging from a few thousand dollars to my largest at $10.7 million, somehow the smaller projects always wind up taking just as much effort as the big ones. I am interested in establishing networks and contacts, particularly in the higher education and the research world.
Personal - I am a proud nerd of just about every genre you can think of from classics like Star Trek and Dungeons & Dragons to more recent ones such as Game of Thrones and video games. If you want to talk geek stuff, I am happy to discuss or if you need help translating that newest thing that your youngest relative keeps going on about, let me know. My two kiddos are nerds just like their old man and have already begun to outshine me despite my multi-decade year head start.
