My adeptness in Agile methodologies, cloud platforms, and both front and back-end development equip me to contribute effectively to dynamic engineering teams, delivering high-quality, scalable software solutions. Passionate about driving the software industry forward, I am eager to engage in cutting-edge projects where I can leverage emerging technologies to solve complex challenges and make a significant impact on future advancements in the field.
Personal
I am a proud father of one, soon to be two after extensive fertility treatments for my wife, and have been happily married to my high school sweetheart since 2010. My family is my foundation, and my personal experiences have taught me resilience and the value of perseverance. Outside of my family life, I am deeply passionate about technology, video games, and hockey, which not only serve as a leisure activity but also fuel my continuous learning in the ever-evolving tech landscape. Recently, I achieved a lifelong goal by graduating from a top 10 university with a degree in Computer Science, a testament to my dedication to personal and professional growth. This milestone marks just the beginning of my journey as I aim to contribute meaningfully to the field of software engineering, tackling cutting-edge projects that push the boundaries of what technology can achieve.
