(Image of Alltech, Inc. Nutrigenomics Lab in Nicholasville, KY I did the majority of drawings for the interior, including laboratory cabinetry.)
1993 - 2002 I began learning to draw & mechanical drawing in 8th grade. From there I became highly proficient in mechanical and architectural drawing through high school. In college I mastered AutoCAD and Inventor.
2002 - 2006 I worked as a CAD instructor (and some table drafting) for Spencerian College and later Lexington Community College (Now a part of the Bluegrass Technical College System) .
2004 - 2006 I was the CAD specialist for Alltech, Inc. , a global biotech company. I was responsible for all CAD projects company-wide including mechanical, architectural, civil, process, electrical, and "as-built" drawings.
2019 Attended General Assembly's UX Immersive program (UXDI-51) where I completed 400 hours of training under the guidance off Lauren Golden (Lead), Stacie Hibino (Co-Lead), and Anna Krezia (Instructional Associate). I completed & presented 5 projects applying all of the core UX skills and theories learned.
