I have built hundreds of static websites, including many of the components from the ground up—as well as complex Single Page Applications and high-performance-related applications—all utilizing JavaScript. JavaScript was initially my area of focus when I began learning programming, to the extent that I have read many popular libraries' source, and to this day, it remains my favorite language to use and to help others learn.

I've used C# and the MVC framework for large, complex applications, as well as small, informational web sites. I used C# daily for multiple positions, and it is a pleasant object-oriented programming language to work with, and a productive language for even junior developers to use.

I've used from the command-line for all of my projects (minus a few positions which used other version control systems).

Like many who learn to program, one of my hobbies is video game development. I had an interest in game development using canvas and javascript, particularly due to it's infancy when I started. I've done a handful of game jams using Canvas, and am currently working on a game framework for Canvas-based games.

As the Director of Project Development, one of my most beloved responsibilities was the formulation of solutions to real-world problems using content, applications, and systems design. This process entailed making sure every process or solution was multi-faceted, or consequential: providing a solution to more than just the original problem. Example: Seamlessly integrating the users of a job board to incentive them to filter quality posters, helping the next influx of job seekers by utilizing the user's story (the user reviews each post individually, instead of a list, then approves, saves for later, or claims not interested).
