Founder - Campus Codefest
Born out of my conviction in the immense potential of greater cross-campus collaboration on software projects, I founded Campus Codefest. We brought together students and staff from across the University of Minnesota to work intensively together for two full days on projects of their choosing.
Campus Codefest became an annual tradition. Front line tech workers envisioned and created new systems, tools, and services together. Some projects took on new life outside the event but more importantly, Codefest broke down barriers between departments and inspired others to plan and hold their own events.
