    Technology Manager, Black Spectacles

    Chicago

    Right out of high school, I thought I wanted to become an architect; but after two semesters of late nights (doing homework!), I changed majors and switched to mathematics. Prior to my current role, I had been at an award winning Chicago marketing agency for 11+ years, and at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway before that, honing my web development skills. And when I feel the need to flex my creative muscle, I do some nuts-to-bolts freelance web design on the side.

    It was serendipity that Black Spectacles and I found each other back in July 2018. Black Spectacles provides the industry-leading test prep for the Architect Registration Examination in the form of online videos, practice exams, flashcards and group coaching and private tutoring. While I'm doing less hands-on developing from day to day, my eye for good design paired with my digital know-how are a perfect fit for my role at my new gig. It also doesn't hurt that I know a bit about architecture and was a high school mathematics teacher in my past life!
