If I were a Software Engineer archetype, I'd say I fall square into the category of "Builder" (I'd make a great Dwarf). I've always enjoyed constructing designs (as my rather sizable LEGO collection will attest), and during my adolescence I spent countless hours building levels for the video games I'd become enthralled with. As I delved deeper it opened the door to more advanced coding and before long it was clear that programming was the perfect way to endlessly scratch that creative itch. The most satisfying aspect, and the reason I never seem to get tired of it, is the fact that ultimately your only limitation is your imagination. I found the ability to translate mere mental constructs into lines of carefully arranged, and nearly arcane, symbols and syntax something akin to alchemy with the end results producing a tangible, usable program. It was modern-day wizardry.

Self-taught, I'm always curious to explore new terrain. I have sometimes been called the "glue" in a team due to my broad flexibility and capacity to fill in gaps. For me, the most rewarding element of coding collaboratively is that gut-level satisfaction after coming together and successfully deploying your constructed slice of functionality to the world.

I've been fortunate to enjoy the benefit of some incredible mentors along my journey who took me under their wing and showed me the ropes, and I find there's always something new to learn from everyone you meet. I truly enjoy trading knowledge and working with engineers of all experience levels. I've found solidifying my own understanding of a subject by collaborating with another engineer is almost always more personally rewarding than solving a problem on my own. I wholeheartedly believe that this symbiotic process produces compound results, in both directions, and teams soon become unique pools of shared experience and accomplishments.

I am an experienced Software Engineer who is well-versed in the design, implementation, and deployment pipeline. I take pride in the wide array of skills I've acquired which allow me to contribute to an organization and prove productive regardless of environment. I champion mentorship and collaboration, I always seek to improve, and I believe every challenge faced is worth new knowledge gained.
