The purpose of the TechCats is to post and discuss current and interesting topics in the tech world. We are a group of seniors majoring in Management Information Systems at the University of Northern Iowa, and will posting to this site over the course of the 2017-2018 Fall semester. Our names are Parker Fifield, Samantha Zobel, and Maggie Wilcoxon.

Parker enjoys spending his free time being active outdoors. Parker is also an avid Cubs fan and plans on going to the World Series at Wrigley field this year if they make it that far. After college Parker hopes to enter the field of IT security but is also open to other opportunities to start his career.

Maggie plans to blog about the world of Big Data - what’s being done with it, how the world is changing around it, and how it will affect the future of every industry.
In the ever evolving tech world, there are hundreds of different topics to discuss and read about. The goal of this blog is to scratch the surface of just a few of these topics, and inform you of some of our personal interests that are coming out of our field of study.
