Hi, I’m Brook. I am a Bend, Oregon-based professional with a combined 15 years of software development, startup business, and quality assurance experience. My education includes BS degrees in Computer Science and Dietetics, and an MS in Human Nutrition. My early careers were in with biotech and pharmaceutical companies; more recently, I’ve worked in energy and software industries. I most recently worked for an energy intelligence software firm, with an exceptional team, solving complex problems to predict behavior/outcomes and reduce energy cost and use.
My overall professional mission is to solve important problems, build value for internal and external customers, and improve customer/user experience. Specific industries of interest are: life sciences, energy, and public health.
Still a nutrition fanatic, I regularly torture my family by trying unusual recipes and diets. Long-distance running and fitness in general are passions of mine as well. I’ve completed several marathons and two ultra-marathons. When I’m not programming or exploring new technologies, I can be found either in the kitchen or on the trail/road (sometimes accompanied by my husband or kids).
