Hi, I'm a web developer with quite a few years of experience in a wide range of technologies. I have worked with companies to help them update older applications and services and transition to different infrastructure. I've worked with teams to design and implement custom software solutions within reasonable time frames. At my current job, I'm able to continue building tools and services for a larger organization and enable software engineering teams to get stuff done.
I started my current Software Engineer career as a self-taught Web Developer that ran a few websites for friends. Building websites and programming in Python was, and still is, a hobby of mine that I enjoy doing. All of my open source projects on GitHub, Codeberg, and sourcehut are built because I had a problem I wanted to solve. I like creating and solving problems, which is probably why I enjoy programming.
My longest running side project is Puzzle Massive. It's currently at version 3 and it's what I look forward to hacking on during my spare time. More details about the Puzzle Massive project are at my site: https://massive.xyz/puzzle. I have also developed an open source tool to generate jigsaw puzzle pieces called piecemaker which Puzzle Massive uses.
