About Me

I am a mental health professional turned software developer who wants to combine my passion for helping others with a technical skillset offering the broadest possible reach. My soft skills, acquired through a career spent helping those in need, combined with a strong and ever expanding technical skillset make me a dynamic team member and an ideal candidate. I look forward to the continued development of my technical skills and a lifetime of learning. I enjoy building lean, intuitive and thoroughly tested applications that add value to lives of others.

Outside of development, I enjoy anything outdoors. I'm also an avid photographer. I took all the photos behind my projects above. If you have any questions, just ask. I'd love to hear from you!
