Hello there
I've now spent over a decade in the Software Industry. I started my career with 4 years at university graduating with a BS in Computer Science, a concentration in "Software Development", and an additional specialization in the "Systems" program. Throughout my career I've worked as a senior full-stack software developer, technical product manager, business analyst, and more! I've spent time working for myself and I've spent time salaried. I once joined a SaaS startup as #9 and helped grow the company to and through an acquisition. I enjoy mentoring and I prefer to work with/on self-organizing teams.
My current focus is on the coding side of the business, but I strive to to remain agile in my attitude towards roles. JavaScript/TypeScript (all aboard the strongly typed JS train ) are my gotos: React, Node.js, Express, Remix, Next.js—the works.
