Microsoft certified / Comptia Security + certified software engineer who loves going to work each and every day!A full stack software engineer with a passion for both software, hardware and a growing interest in the world of automation and DevOps. I build things, I fix things and have a strong desire to continue learning and expanding my skillset.I've participated in all facets of the software development life cycle. From requirements gathering and analysis, to helping write user stories, and developing new code as well as fixing and refactoring old code. A sizable chunk of my career has been spent supporting the men and women of the US Military by supporting several government / military websites. It is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done hands down. I have continued to grow and have been encouraged to grow and thrive each and every day for the better part of a decade. I am also regularly encouraged to step outside my comfort zone, and tackle things outside of my area of expertise. Where there is a will, there is a way! There are so many things I love about being a software engineer including the wonderful people I get to work with, the fact that every single day there will be something new to learn, and that I will always have the chance and the motivation to continue becoming better at what I do. Software development will always be a part of me!I hve good experience with modern tech stacks like ASP.NET MVC, Entity Framework, Angular, SQL, AWS and Microsoft cloud technologies, various JavaScript libraries, HTML/CSS and more.The military websites were written in legacy ASP.NET / ADO.NET and I spent many years supporting, refactoring and enhancing them. I have also worked on modern tech based projects dealing with Microsoft cloud technologies like logic apps, service bus, blob storage, deployment pipelines, VM creation and management with exposure to custom logic apps connectors. Similar exposure to AWS with container based applications consuming things like amazon RDS, Lambda functions, S3 file storage and getting exposure to ECS / EC2, and Cloudwatch. Deployments using Jenkins.Some of the software development IDE's and tools I have experience with: various versions of Visual Studio(2008-2019), VS Code, Eclipse as well as other tools like MS SSMS and a few versions of TFS/AzureDevOps as well as git.
