ABOUT ME

Senior RoR developer and front-end hacker

Programming brings me joy. Whether it is being part of a team working on a product that delights thousands of users, a small weekend hack project to solve a personal pain, or just building cool things with new technology; for 12 years I have been solving problems with code. I am fluent in Ruby, PHP, and Javascript. I also do fairly well with CSS and SQL. My current passion is helping people level up their Ruby on Rails code. So many startups have immature code that causes them unending headaches and helping to resolve that is incredibly satisfying. In my spare time I hang out with my wife and 9 year old son doing fun things here in Michigan like sledding, cycling, silly string fights, and general shenanigans. Specialties: Software process, agile development, api integration and design, and testing.

I have been building websites since 2004 and been writing javascript in some form or another to prototype those experiences. I started with Vanilla and move to prototype for a few years, then jQuery once that became all the rage. Since then I have had the chance to build a ton of things mostly with framework-less JS. Recently I have delved into React and Flux.

I have been using, bending, and upgrading the Rails framework since 2.3. With years of experience in the medical and financial sectors I am confident in my security practices, writing permission systems, and generally created reliable systems.
