About Me

I am an enthusiastic and innovative developer with four years of professional development behind me working on enterprise level web applications. I have experience creating and maintaining front and back end applications utilizing c# and Javascript. I have worked on projects that range from small quality of life improvements to large new features such as creating the base for auctions to be added to Rezi. Outside of work I have put my mechatronic engineering skills to practice with many projects completed in my spare time. My projects have ranged from IOT such as home automation and wifi connected sensors to an autonomous robot and an alexa controlled robot arm. I have a passion for finding out how devices operate and coming up with innovative new ideas for improvement. I'm always involving myself in new projects and enjoy being on the cutting edge of technology
