Being born into the Millennials has blessed me with a slight advantage in the tech space, but I don’t take it for granted… I continue to refine my craft and expertise in anything and everything technology related. From my software engineering and validation background in the aviation industry to my drive to stay on the bleeding edge in Mobile, Web and Cloud technologies, I am enthusiastic in my career and my work.
I have BIG ideas and love exploring new solutions that continue to delight users. From my early entrepreneur days of MyHouseholdAccountant to SalonSuiteAccounting, ManUpandHunt, TheOutfitterDirectory, and Dared, I thoroughly love building software. I’m a firm believer in continuing education to stay abreast in this light-speed industry and turn theory into practice every day.
