My name is Kurtis McCartney, currently... wandering.

Most of my personal work profile is available at http://www.kurtismccartney.com/resume with a couple of exceptions. More detailed descriptions can be seen in the blog posts and important activities posts scattered about the website. Here is a primer from my time as a University student:

CSC/ACM - I acted as Director of Communications for the computer Science Club and ACM Club at Brock in 2007/2008. In this position I facilitated the basic needs of computer science students in an environment created to encourage collaborative development.

Brock Senate - I was a Student Senator 2007-2009 on the Brock University Administrative Senate, and represent student interests on the IT and Infrastructure Committee. I look forward to the great things happening at Brock University and enjoy the emphasis on improving the value of a degree from Brock

BUSU/BUSAC - As a councillor on the Brock Undergraduate Students Administrative Council from 2006-2008 I held positions as a Finance Committee member, BUSR/CFBU Representative, and Bus-Pass Survey Taskforce Member. Also much of my time was spent as an unofficial advocate for regional students on this council. Though this entity shows great promise it exists to bureaucratically accomplish goals arranged by BUSU Inc.

Brock Radio - In 2006/2007 I was a member of the Board of Directors for CFBU 103.7fm, and voiced concerns about transmission range and web-access. Working with the CFBU team was pleasant and eye-opening with regard to communication and intellectual property rights.

My involvement also flows into conservation and low impact technologies. Low impact on the environment and low negative impact on human life. Improving quality of life with each action and reservation.
