In March of 2021 I was hired as a language consultant by Mythopoeia (now MythWorks) to expand and develop Nymeran, a language originally created by Niamh Doyle for the first four issues of the comic series Glow.

In September of 2014 I was hired as a language consultant by the Riddlesbrood Touring Theater Company to expand and develop Brooding, a language created by Veronica Hamilton of the Language Creation Society and Riddlesbrood founder Ryan Long. The language is used in many of the Troupe's plays, and is spoken in parts of New Jersey and the mystical land of Harken. I've become its curator.

I founded Alibinary, LLC in March of 2012 (with the help of the University of Minnesota Law School's Corporate Institute Business Clinic) with the idea of doing freelance technology consulting mainly as a Google Apps reseller, although most of my revenue to date comes from online sales of my parents' homemade wood-fired maple syrup.

When classes were not in session and my presence was not as necessary in the student areas, I assisted the main technology office with faculty and staff support. In 2004, the Law School initiated a laptop program, whereby all students were given a laptop at orientation which I supported (both software and hardware) throughout their Law School careers, and I was given the slightly ambiguous title of Laptop Program Coordinator.Shortly after the Law School implemented its Laptop Program, I was promoted to an IT Professional (July 2005), and was responsible for all student-related IT support at the Law School, including laptops, wireless network, computer labs, printing, and student-run journals.As the Law School's laptop program grew, we hired two additional student support personnel and I was promoted to supervisor of the Laptop Center (July 2007). In that role I continued to provide support to students with my team of two full-time staff members and anywhere from one to thirteen student workers. After the Laptop Program was discontinued in 2012, the student support office was rolled back into the main technology support group, and I was responsible for the new centralized helpdesk until July of 2014 when I relocated to the East Coast.During my time as an IT Supervisor at the Law School, I was elected to the Civil Service Senate twice and the University Senate once. I was also appointed to serve on several committees, including the Law Managers' Development Group, the Law School Committee on Misconduct, the Law School Community Building Committee, the Law School Faculty-Staff Consultative Committee, Web Portal Committee, and various search committees.
