About me  

I'm a full-stack engineer, pursuing a CS Masters part-time at GA Tech. With 8 years of Rails experience, I'm searching for a team that subscribes to and follows excellent code design and development practices, with a codebase to prove it.

Our philosophies will align well if your team subscribes to:

- XP development practices like pairing, peer review, TDD, CI
- Sandi Metz’ “rules” as a guideline
- SOLID OO design
- GitHub Flow
- Community style guides, verified by robots
- HumaneDevelopment.org tenets, especially empthy
- Designing with awareness toward mutability and side effects


Main expertise

- I have expertise in Ruby, Javascript, Git, shell scripting, and all over the web stack.
- I write beautiful code that others can understand and reason about.
- I am a master troubleshooter, organized and able to solve problems quickly.


My biggest achievement and my soft skills

I think I'm an alright guy, and others tend to think so too. :-)

- I lift up the teams I work on, in both happiness level and skill level
- I understand tradeoffs and make wise judgement calls based on business priorities
- I communicate clearly, both verbally and especially written
