I'm orginally from the Seattle area. I've lived in Alaska and South Carolina. I'm not afraid to get out of my comfort zone which lets me explore new places and experience new things.

My passion for tech started when I was growing up as a curious kid. When I watched TV or turned on my N64, my first thought would be "how does this work?". Technology seemed like the closest thing to magic. To this day I'm still learning new things. When I'm not hunting down bugs or working on my own projects, I'm sitting on the couch eating Cheez-Its and watching tech conferences on Coding Tech.

My freetime usually consists of me yelling at the TV because I died from lag. I play a variety of games from Super Smash Bros and Zelda to GTA and Battlefield. When I'm not gaming, I'm usually outside fishing or hiking with my dogs and wife. Occasionally I'll get addicted to a new show on Netflix and binge watch every episode (Breaking Bad, Walking Dead, SHIELD, Lost, Prison Break, etc.).

Skills
Social Media Application

I created this application using a MERN stack. With this project I learned how to develop local authentication using passport and bcrypt. I used Redux to manage application state and Mongoose to create models and store documents in MongoDB.

Survey Email Application

This is a single page application that utilizes a MERN stack. This project helped me understand how payments work in a web application using a third party service like Stripe and how OAUTH works. Also learned how emails are sent out using services like SendGrid.
