Hello! I am a programmer currently living in Tokyo, Japan. I'm currently searching for a new position, so if you think we'd be a good fit, please feel free to send me a message! 

I've been developing web applications and software for over 7 years and worked across a variety of industries including financial technology and port security, as well as having been employed at startups. I mainly use JavaScript and Node.js, but have some experience in Python and Kotlin as well. I enjoy solving difficulty problems and collaborating with team members, implementing new features, and improving tooling and workflows.

I am currently studying Japanese at a language school and am happy to continue my language journey even after finding a new programming position!
