About Me

Greetings! I'm your host, Stephen Van Dahm. I live and work in the Twin Cities. It's a nice place; you should visit sometime.

I grew up in the town where I was born: Spartanburg South Carolina. After graduating from high school I had no idea what to do, so I went to college. While in college, I had my first exposure to computer programming and eventually decided to pursue computing as a profession. Since the liberal arts college I was attending had no computer science major, I came back home to Spartanburg and enrolled at USCS. I graduated with a B.S. in Computer Science.

From September 2005 to August 2006, I participated in the Lutheran Volunteer Corps, through which I taught computer literacy in a low-income Minneapolis neighborhood. Now that my LVC year is over, I work as a computer programmer.
