About

I am a Software Developer in beautiful Colorado with a wife (praise Jesus, how did that happen?!) and a cat. I love the problem-solving aspects of programming and the satisfaction that comes from developing a clean, clever, and efficient solution to a challenge.

I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a Mathematics minor from UCCS, and several years of professional programming experience. I find software development in a professional environment to be extremely fulfilling, especially when you can see the positive effects of something you have created.

I desire to constantly be sharpening and honing my craft while expanding my knowledge with new technologies and languages; and I'm never opposed to constructive criticism if it means I grow from the experience (unless that constructive criticism involves where I put my curly braces).

Languages I use

(In order of strength)

  • Javascript, JQuery, AngularJS
  • Python 2&3
  • C# and the .NET framework
  • C++
  • Java
  • ActionScript 2 & 3 (Went through a HUGE Flash game dev phase)
  • MySQL
  • PHP
  • VBA (ew)
  • PowerShell

Other things with which I'm pretty familiar

  • HTML 4/5
  • CSS 3
  • XML
  • JSON

Hobbies

  • Programming
    • Developing utilities and games for fun.
    • Maintaining my personal website.
  • Video Games
    • Any Japanese RPGs (my current fav is Square Enix's Bravely Default (I'm a huge sucker for a job system))
    • ALL THE POKEMON (recently completed my national Pokedex. Take that Markus Smithson from 2nd grade. Who's the master now!!!??!... Did I mention the miracle of me being married?)
  • Music
    • Guitar
    • Singing
  • Art
    • Digital painting/sketching
    • Web design

Art Stuffs

I used to do quite a bit of Digital Illustration and even some 2D animation for a while there, but not so much any more. When I was doing that stuff though, I was using:

  • Adobe Flash CS5
  • Photoshop CS5
  • Adobe Illustrator CS5
  • Procreate (iOS application that runs MIND-BLOWINGLY well on a first gen iPad)
