About

I am a full stack web developer with four years of experience in software development building tools quickly, efficiently, without sacrificing quality and care. I am a great problem solver who can quickly identify and methodically solve issues. Highly dynamic and adaptive; combining creativity and critical thinking to solve complex problems. Known among colleagues for strong collaboration skills, leadership qualities and a keen understanding of design and user needs.

As a self motivated software enthusiest, I have contributed to several major improvements to my company's platform, Model Match, and developed several personal and open source projects, as-well-as contributing to other open source projects.
