So, I've been a couple of different things.

I'm currently a senior software developer at Talkiatry, and I love it. I'm surrounded by brilliant and passionate people, and I'm honored to be among them, as we take a swing at the mental healthcare industry in America. I'm proud to say that therapy and medication saved my life, and humbled by the opportunity to contribute to its quality and availability.

Before that, I worked at Bandwagonfanclub, an identity infrastructure startup in Greenville, SC. We were small, and we were scrappy, and we worked our asses off just to stay up and running. It's where I cut my teeth in the startup world, I will forever be grateful to every person that worked at that company, for giving me a job when I transitioned careers from physics to code.

Oh yeah, before that, I was a mechanical engineer, who worked in a variety of roles for GE Power's Industrial Gas Turbine business. I designed and owned turbomachinery, developed controls software, and helped run the world's largest fleet of gas turbines. Aaaaand Imma be honest, it was a bad fit. But I tried my hardest, and so did the people I worked with. I'm just better at compooters than explosions  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Other things I've been:
- Musician and performer in a band called Wolfgang Wallace.
- Dungeon Master of some acclaim.
- "The West Wing" expert, at least up to season 4 and then I kinda drop off, but still.
- Competitive Super Smash Bros Melee player.

In short, I'm a few different things, but above all else, I'm excited and ready for whatever comes next.
