Software Engineer | Maker | Creature Keeper

I'm a people-oriented problem solver who happens to write code, too. With 15+ years in IT under my belt, I've learned that the best solutions come from understanding both the technology and the humans behind it.

When I'm not deep in distributed systems or wrangling APIs, you'll find me:

🪴 Tending to my cozy home of houseplants & orchids
🦎 Hanging out with my critter club (geckos, pacman frogs, a hognose snake, isopods, springtails, and the obligatory cats & dogs)
🖨️ Bringing ideas to life with my 3D printer & laser cuter 📔 Journaling in my Hobonichi Techo Cousin 🎮 Getting lost in Silksong & Roguelike deckbuilders

I love creating things—whether it's code, custom stationery, or a perfectly balanced terrarium. There's something deeply satisfying about building systems that work smoothly, both in software and in life.

Languages & Tools: Golang • Python • PHP • JavaScript • TypeScript • React
Infrastructure: AWS • GCP • Docker • Kubernetes • Linux
Databases: MongoDB • MySQL • Azure
Specialties: RESTful APIs • Distributed Systems • Email Security (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, BIMI)

I'm always happy to talk about engineering, building scalable systems, or the best substrate mix for isopods.
