Hello!

I have worked in UW CSE since 2007. I graduated from UW in 2006, with a degree in Interdisciplinary Visual Art and the Comparative History of Ideas (lot of painting, drawing, reading, and talking). I'm almost done with a Masers in Education Leadership & Policy Studies - hopefully I will graduate in Spring 2013. :)

While I was an undergrad, studied abroad in Berlin Germany. I also had a bunch of jobs in design and in student services: peer counselor, orientation leader, and assistant with the Washington State Achievers scholarship program, intern at the Washington Education Foundation and at a design studio downtown, Arts Editor and Design Chief at The Daily, and editor of The Anthology Project (a travel journal from the Comparative History of Ideas department).

Working with students is great. I particularly like working with pre-majors and people who are navigating big decisions about their academic goals and plans. I lead CSE 190a, a seminar that helps women in CSE 142 and 143 explore majors and careers in technology. I love meeting the smart women who take the class every quarter. :)
