I am a passionate and adaptable full-stack engineer and agile team leader with a history of shipping products and solving complex problems with technology. As a voracious learner of new languages and technologies, I have the ability to apply the right tool to the job.
My typical workflow for a project includes: Ruby on Rails for the API and a JavaScript MVVC framework (such as Backbone, Angular or Ember) for the front-end. I’ve also been known to use Sinatra, Node.js and Go for the API layer.
I’m interested in learning about scaling and concurrency and I’d like to try my hand at more native mobile development.
