About
I'm a full stack web developer with over 12 years experience in JavaScript and Microsoft tech stacks. I find a lot of excitement in creative problem solving and continuous improvement.
I want to write high quality meaningful software with a great team of developers. I believe in leading by example and learning from your mistakes. Great developers have to be able to constantly evolve with the constant changing development landscape.
