I'm a life long software developer with a passion for building. My mother was a system's analyst at the largest electric company in the state; so I had extremely early exposure to data centers, hardware, and computers. My first official venture was in middle school, where I built and ran a snowboarding website, complete with a full blown
affiliate store. My passion continued, and I began consulting with local companies to build and maintain their websites. I took early computer science college courses in high school for credit. I went to school for computer science. Building is an extension of who I am.
This is clearly demonstrated with some of my achievements: I'm a top 0.5% StackOverflow contributor and I have a GitHub chock full of activity dating back to 2009.
Nowadays, I use my knowledge to teach, train, and manage others.
