About Judy

I have a BS in Computer Science with a minor in Math from CSU. I worked in Software Development in the fields of Aerospace, Geographical Information Systems, Advertising and Telecommunications. My hobbies are skiing, backpacking, mountain biking, gardening, sewing and investing.

Subjects/Classes

Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Access and PowerPoint) (CIS 118, 135, 145, 155), Python (CSC 119).

Academic Advice

I find it helpful to break problems into smaller, manageable pieces. Then, if you get frustrated or stuck, explain your design to someone else. They don’t even have to understand the subject. Just putting it into words often helps you identify things you overlooked.
