Sometimes you have to see it to believe it. Grab a coffee, get cozy, and dive in.
Let me tell you my story - the crazy career turns I've taken and my amazing family.
Driven by curiosity, I have danced around to various professions. I completed my degree in Mechanical Engineering focusing on dynamic systems and advanced computer algorithms. I started my career in engine validation collecting and analyzing data. Desiring to get away from the grease, I pursued a path in business and supply chain consulting, where I created and visualized large databases and crafted fancy presentations. Tired of the go go, I repositioned myself in product design and development managing timelines and teams for heavy manufacturing electronics.
Bringing my industry knowledge and algo-analytical skills together, I launched a full on attack in user application software development. The past 5 five years has been a wild ride:
I excel in everything JavaScript and have a special place in my heart for universal JS apps. I love nerding out with advanced algorithms and strive to turn complexity into beauty. I prefer the greenfield space helping customers bring their dreams to life.
I grew up in Peoria, Illinois - a small city surrounded by rural farmland known for the phrase “Will it play in Peoria”. My favorite past time activities include: skateboarding, disc golf and Smash Brothers.
I went to Bradley, a local private university, followed up with a Christian mission trip. I lived for a few years with friends who helped strengthen my faith while working my first couple jobs.
One night, after a gathering with some friends, I gathered my courage and chased down the woman of my dreams and swept her off her feet. After long distance engagement while she was living in California, Erica and I got hitched and started our life together.
Erica started working for Caterpillar right out of school, and she received a new position that relocated us to bourbon capitol - Louisville, KY. After a few years and a few more friends we took off for her next assignment in Alberta, Canada, where we live today.
Erica and I love to travel and spend most evenings cooking and sipping wine or classic bourbon cocktails. We have two kids - James is turning 1 and our feisty cat Misty.
