I am a full stack software engineer with background in fine arts and printing. I believe that the greatest things happen when technology and art come together. I am a conceptual thinker with passion for programming and an eye for design. I thrive on challenges and have a drive for seeking efficient solutions. I love being a part of a team that works towards a common goal, and I take pride in doing my part well and helping out my teammates whenever possible. I specialize in JavaScript and Ruby on Rails development.
