I'm a Full Stack Web Developer with nearly a decade of experience in small to mid-size companies, highly adaptable to whatever gets thrown at me, and willing to see the challenge in just about anything. My option in bioinformatics reflects my interest in all things math and science-related.

Although I'm currently fully employed, I'm always interested to hear about other people's project ideas and challenges. My line is always open!
