About
I am a computer science undergraduate at Calvin College (graduating December 2014). I am interested in information design, from data visualization to user interfaces to graphic design. Bret Victor, Edward Tufte and Mike Bostock inspire me. My favorite tools include Python, JavaScript, D3.js and Angular.js. I am the print editor of Calvin's school newspaper, Chimes. My other interests include listening to music, reading and biking.
