Keith Nickum

Keith graduated from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln in 2008 with a B.S. in Computer Science.   He enjoys working with intelligent people who crack books other than technical manuals from time to time (although it's nice when they can read those too), and is happy focusing on helping them with the technical side of research. 

Keith is considering how he can best choose a research direction for an M.S. in Computer Science. He is spending his free time between Digital Humanities projects focusing on replacing his entire life with a small shell script, and wonders why people spend money on enterprise software when there's always great open source options out there. Keith is also trying to hasten the singularity by switching his entire life to a command line interface.
