About

Senior QA Engineer and aspiring developer based in Austin, TX.

My Story

I coded as a kid on my Commodore 64, making it boop, beep and flash. I didn't touch much code again until my early 20s, when I started building websites for non-profits and small businesses for fun.

A few years later I went full time and started learning the details of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I've mostly worked QA since then, but I did have a handful of stints doing light frontend dev work. I also did some devops/SDET-type work, setting up a CI/CD pipeline and writing Java tests.

I specialize in building modern web applications using JavaScript, React, and other fun technologies I can get my hands on. Every project is an opportunity to learn something new.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me with my family, my dogs or maybe riding a pterodactyl.
