I work with incredible people, to create amazing tools, which do cool things. Some of the software has been around manufacturing, some in HR, but some of my favorites have been in healthcare. I’ve worked as a lone-ranger and with some great engineering teams.
I prefer working on small-to-mid-sized teams, or solution groups within larger environments. I like OOP and Functional Programming, having yet to hear anything that makes one the ultimate solution to all of my problems. I believe in the right tool for the right job and love to prove that some tools are just more versatile than we ever imagined. I write JavaScript, C#, Clojure, PHP, Java, and a bunch of languages friendly to these.
Good fortune has allowed me the ability and opportunity to lead. My curiosity means I’m not content to “just write code.” I find meaningful solutions to problems affecting people. Some of those problems have been in making things fast and well.
Personal Mission Statement:
Grow continually; have a positive impact on the world, and keep family at the center of it all.
Goals:
- Continue strengthening my current skill-set, pick-up new skills through trial-error-guidance-and-observance, lose some bad habits that I don’t even know I have yet, and learn to be.
- Participate in the development community through open-source contributions, taking out the trash at conferences, and maybe present some of the lessons I pick up along the way.
