I am a seasoned, lead-level software engineer with a very deep skill set. I thrive on new technologies while leveraging everything I've learned to always keep moving forward. I am a firm believer in keeping things as simple as possible, whether it be a system design or a code base, and always keep that goal top of mind in anything I do.
