About

✻

I have always had a passionate interest in computers, design, and technology. I started learning fine art skills at a young age and eventually moved to digital art and design. I built my first website at 12 and became fascinated with the web. I learned HTML, CSS, JS, Flash, and some of the LAMP stack and started doing freelance projects for clients. This led to a focus on UI/UX which turned into a career path.

After 4 years of designing interactions I became frustrated with my inability to fully build the ideas I had, so I started looking into software engineering. After a short time, I quickly realized that programming was my true calling.

I began writing ASP.NET and C# professionally in 2011 and then moved into a new role working with CodeIgniter, Doctrine, and lots of javascript. Since then my interest in mobile has increased and I've written two full-featured iOS apps.

Lately I've been learning Swift and working on Linken - an open-source tool for remembering things written in Laravel and PHP7. My goal is to try as many new technologies as I can so I always have the right tool in my toolbox.
