Intro

I decided to leap into the field of software engineering and the tech industry as a whole, following a successful 3.5 year career as a welder in the shipbuilding industry. Beginning my endeavor in March 2019, I enrolled in a Bachelor of Science in Software Development degree program with Western Governors University. Less than 3 years later in January 2022, I have graduated with my degree successfully, and I am looking forward to doing and learning more as a new graduate software engineer in a professional environment.

My coding experience is primarily in Java and focused on applying what I've learned about object-oriented programming and design, but I am also competent with languages like Python, SQL, and HTML5/CSS3.

I am currently seeking employment (or internship) with an organization as an associate, apprentice, new grad or junior level software engineer (in-office or remote). Although I currently am most proficient with Java and the backend of development, I am open to any position and confident in my abilities to learn new technologies or languages quickly and adapt to change rapidly.

My Work

Currently, I do not have any apps or projects hosted online, but you can view the source code for several personal projects of mine by visiting my GitHub profile. I have included detailed README files within each repository to give an overview of each project.

About Me

I have resided in the greater Seattle area for over 3 years with my partner Bekah, her daughter Ava, and our dog, Buddy. I currently work from home as an IT service desk analyst. Although I thoroughly enjoy solving technical problems in my present role, I would like to take my problem solving skills into the realm of software development.

When I allow myself a break from working on software projects, studying, or honing my skills in various programming languages, I enjoy improving myself in other facets of my life. In particular, I enjoy lifting weights in the gym as well as playing electric guitar.

Contact

Whether you are a prospective employer, recruiter, or anyone else looking to connect, please feel free to contact me via email or LinkedIn. Also available below is a link to my GitHub where I store the source code for projects created during my time at Western Governors University, and many that I've created for learning purposes, or even just for fun. Please reach out to see my resume. Thank you!
