I am a 36 year old US Army Veteran and Software Engineer. My development journey started with making video game addons and I've been working on continuing that journey ever since. After joining the military post 9/11, and spending time as a Correctional Officer, I decided to try my hand at software development. I recently completed a Full Stack Web Developer bootcamp, which helped me learn how to use a large variety of languages including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Bootstrap, VueJS, NodeJS and C#. I also learned some backend database software such as MongoDB and MySQL. I am now working on a couple smaller side projects, and am excited to see where the industry takes me.
- I've contributed to open-source repositories for games like World of Warcraft and Rust. (Check out my pinned repos.)
- I have 14 years experience in military(8) and law enforcement(6) fields.
- I am a huge hockey fan. San Jose Sharks, Seattle Kraken & Idaho Steelheads.
- I am a massive video game addict. I love exploring strange new worlds.
