Professional Bio

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with over 5 years of experience in fullstack development using React, React Native, Ruby on Rails, and several other technologies. I've been in love with programming since I was a kid, when I learned Java to start making my own videogames. My favorite part of being a software developer is finding solutions to complicated problems, and the satisfaction that comes with finding a good solution that can be implemented cleanly. Outside of work, I enjoy gardening, hiking, camping, and spending time with my wife and our 2 cats.
