I am a fulltime student at Missouri Southern State University, where I'm studying Computer Forensics, CSI, and Psychology. I have a wide range of academic interests, primarily focused around crime investigation, cyber crime, internet communications and programming, and abnormal psychology.

Outside of school, I work part-time and volunteer doing social media and disaster response for the Red Cross. I'm a member of the DAT team and run the Joplin Red Cross Twitter feed, as well as help with the various Ozarks Red Cross websites. Also, I am a paranormal investigator and active in the paranormal community. I'm Co-Founder of the National Coalition of Ghost Hunters, President of the MoSo Ghost Hunters, and the Organizer of the KOM (Kansas Oklahoma Missouri) Paranormal Meetup Group.I focus primarily on science-based paranormal investigation, where we attempt to gather scientific evidence of paranormal activity and use scientific methods to attempt to debunk and explain reported activity.
