About

I'm a software developer, working as a Software Engineer with a start-up out of the USA. During the day I primarily use .Net. I am third generation Canadian, born and raised in rural Ontario.

I work in a full stack position, currently maintaining and writing features for a .Net Framework SASS, and seaprate but related .Net Web APIs. Previously I re-wrote legacy applications using Blazor for the front-end, .Net Web APIs for data access, persisted by SQL Server. Professionally I've also written Typescript, maintained both MVC and Web Forms applications written in Framework. In my free time, lately, I've been messing around with different front-end frameworks using both Parcel and Astro, have just become a convert to programming in containers, and am writing an interpreter in Go (book assisted).

I have an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Economics from York University. I've also taken a variety of online classes and specializations, including Data Science, R programming and the operation of GIS software. The first software I developed was using the R programming language; a Rare Earth company comparison app, and later a word prediction app. With the rise of LLM's the word prediction app looks like less than a toy. I wrote, or have been part of teams that wrote, multiple full-stack applications, including Node APIs, React front-ends, fullstack applications using NextJs, and a storage api using Node and AWS.
