I am extremely passionate about building tools that improve the way people interact with one another and learn about their surroundings. I am particularly interested in web and mobile platforms. I have worked with Social media API's from Facebook, Twitter, Foursquare, and Google. I dream in Java but have experience with many other languages. I'm currently loving Angular and Node.js.
I am also active in the entrepreneurial community, having lead a team in the West Michigan Startup Weekend, participated in several idea pitches, and been a finalist in the GVSU business plan competition. I'm currently looking to join the next big thing, maybe that's you!
