Summary of Qualifications

Application Developer / Technical Architect with strong analysis and communication skills; technical experience in application development; and mentoring and documentation. Early adopter and anxious learner of new tech and ideas.

Particularly interested in security, emerging languages, distributed computing, Functional Programming, and Data Analytics. My current tech-crush is Elixir/Phoenix, and LiveView.

I can solve Rubik's Cubes, and juggle (a little). But not at the same time.
