A Little More About Me

In the past, I have worked on a wide range of projects, from mainframe systems using Cobol and Java, to mobile devices using IOS and Android. I have also done work on desktop software using Electron and various server-side software. I have a strong background in Java and Spring, but I am also proficient in Javascript and am comfortable using any tools necessary to complete a project. I have experience working on projects across the entire spectrum of software development, and enjoy tackling new challenges and learning new technologies.

In addition, I am a father of two daughters and am married.
