I was born in Homewood, AL on 12 August, 1984 and grew up in Hoover, AL. In 1993 my family and I temporarily moved to Vienna, VA for one year where I had the opportunity to learn more about the U.S. capital, Washington D.C. When I was 11, we moved to Soest, The Netherlands, where I lived throughout high school and the first years of university. Presently, I live in Utrecht, The Netherlands.
In 2008 I co-founded a biotech company called CrimsonBase. I work full-time at our office in the science park in Utrecht and use virtually every spare hour doing research for my master, Game & Media Technology.
