# Gary W.

> Software Engineer at DroneDeploy

Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/garyw

Studied Physics/Bioengineering/Math in college. Always had an affinity for problem solving, whether it's decoding a patient's ailment or deriving equations to predict rocket trajectories. Transitioned from healthcare to software development because I missed building stuff.

Give me a puzzle and a cup of coffee and I'm good to go.


Some skills: React, Redux, Ruby on Rails, jQuery, Node, Express, HTML, CSS, SQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Git, Linux, MATLAB, LaTeX, MVC frameworks, RESTful APIs, SaaS integration, AWS S3
