Profile
A goal-oriented developer and a people person who likes to do things the right way. I specialize in making "techie" understandable to regular people. I have spent the last decade working in JavaScript and assorted libraries such as Angular/AngularJS and NodeJS both in team member and team lead roles. Right now my favorite libraries to work with are React and NextJS, though I am still (always) learning. I love a challenge, whether it’s working out how to use a library I don’t know, or just helping others reach their full potential as developers.
