• Former designer gone rogue after learning a little code; Lover of Node. Not a poet.
• VanillaJS first approach to JavaScript development, Tech Agnostic overall.
• Building awesome shit is what I'm all about.
• Preference for Functional/Reactive programming versus Object-Orientated.
• Serverless Lambdas, micro-service oriented, and RESTful web services are a few personal favorite architectural flavors. On the Front-End: VR, AR, and areas of bleeding-edge related UI/UX development.

A generalist, professional problem solver at heart who thrives in environments with no time for big egos and places heavy emphasis on cultivating culture/community first. Throughout my career, I've found a particular love for the start-up world; where challenges are constantly changing, cross-pollination is preferred, no lone-wolf mentality, and asking questions/over-communication is actively encouraged. In my most recent professional endeavors I've enjoyed moving into more leadership/mentorship-driven capacity. Ideally, I'd love to continue growth in these areas in any new role. As an engineer who started in design, my strengths tend to compliment more Front-End driven development. However, I find nowadays that the divide between Front-End and Back-End driven development a thing of the past. With technology evolving at the awesome, rapid pace it is, these lines are ever blurring. I’m constantly learning and feel more comfortable labeling myself a jack-of-all-trades, master of none.

I'm a huge fan of the Open-Source community and enjoy giving back as often as I am able. Projects of note
