I am a backend engineer excited by performant software solutions. This excitement has me working to understand complex systems and the ease of human interaction with such systems.I have found myself passionate about people and products as I have been in leadership positions, where I have had active interest in the development of persons and coordination of the development of products.Though I find myself in a journey to understanding of various things frequently, some of my current expertise includes backend development with Node.js and Python(flask), containerization with Docker and cloud engineering with Azure and AWS.
