I see myself as a person who loves solving problems by deeply understanding the customer's needs. Its hard to create the best user experience or automate the right tasks without understanding the full experience throughout the entire chain. And that space between you and your customer probably has a lot of "Gotchas!". As a System Development Engineer with a unique blend of skills, I thrive at solving the "Gotchas". With over a decade in audio engineering and experience in multiple programming languages (Javascript/Typescript, Python, bash. Learning Go/Rust), I specialize in AV system design for conference rooms, full-stack web development (tailwind is great, can SQL/React/Svelte etc), CLI tool automation, and AWS cloud solutions (Cloudformation & CDK). I will learn any tool to get the job done and am a heavy user of macOS, Windows and multiple linux distros (REHL, Ubuntu Sever, AL2).I'm always learning something new and love sharing my passion with friends and coworkers or (reluctantly) my wife ;). Whether it's scaling device management of AV systems globally, building a CLI tools for IT automation, or creating secure AWS infrastructure, I bring a holistic approach to technology that bridges the gap between creativity and innovation.With this set of jack-of-all-trades system design skillset, it allows me to bring a unique perspective to any technical situation I find myself in. I also take great pride in my ownership and self motivation. I used to clean tables and move furniture less than 10y ago with no programming skills and no formal college degree. A lot of my skills are self taught through discipline and this curiosity I can't seem to shake. Well, now I make million dollar decisions! A good attitude and little fun can really change your life!
