My father brought home an Apple IIe, a LEGO interface kit and a pile of LEGO TC logo manuals sometime in 1987 - ever since, I've been playing with computers. Software engineer for my entire 20+ year career and still passionate, ever-curious, and loving it immensely. I have designed, built, delivered, and evolved mission critical software to power businesses and delight users. I have a deep understanding of programming and software engineering; and, I have realized that despite loving the details, the largest impact can be achieved by working effectively in a team, and cultivate the others around me. Personal integrity, empathy for others and a mindset of perpetual learning & improvement is key.
