About

Software Engineer who works with Javascript/Node.js, Python, C#, Go, SQL Server, MongoDB, MySQL and a whole lot more. I enjoy learning new technologies when they are the best tool for the job. I usually fill the role of a full stack engineer but always seem to enjoy working with data the most.

Hobbies include web application security and machine learning.
