I'm a senior software engineer with over 12 years of professional experience, with a focus on using Ruby to build back-end systems for distributed high-performance queue processing, REST APIs, and microservices.

I am a quick learner, making me excellent at researching and implementing new technologies, protocols and standards.

I always:

• Create a full and comprehensive test suite for code I write.
• Follow best practices relevant to the work at hand.
• Leave existing code I touch in a better state than I found it.
• Deal with tech debt as early as possible based on project constraints.
• Do things properly, as much as project constraints allow.
