# David A. > Software Engineer II Location: New Haven, Connecticut, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/davida2 “Never judge a book by its cover” A strong metaphor that many still seem to pull off, even if subliminally. I am a highly motivated individual with a strong interest to work within an IT/Security/analytical/Programming environment. I am a certified Secure Infrastructure Specialist through CompTIA from certifications in A+, Network+, and Security+. I am also in the process of completing my goal to become an AWS Certified Developer Associate. Currently, I am working as a Software Engineer involving languages including Python, ReactJs, Typescript, and more. As well working heavily in Amazon Web Services(AWS) to facilitate the development of our infrastructure. It is my goal to understand the inner workings of the web from multiple levels to be a very valuable asset in our IT Industry. Along with my dedication to learning, I have also enrolled in school to pursue a degree in Computer Science where I currently hold a 3.91 GPA. I completed 12 years of service with the Army National Guard where I have have also received an Army Achievement medal and an Army Reserve Components Achievement Medal; however, I believe this criteria alone cannot place such emphasis on my most profound achievement… my character. I challenge you to dig deeper and look beyond the face of this page because the one attribute that I can offer, cannot merely be explained through simple words.
