ABOUT ME
Lead software engineer for UC San Diego with 10+ years of experience
Lead software engineer for UC San Diego with 10+ years of experience
Originally a self taught developer who has been working in the industry for over 10 years, I graduated with honors with a degree in software engineering and a minor in game development.
In my varied software development career I've had the opportunity to explore almost every facet of the software development lifecycle including client side frameworks like Angular, middle tier and headend services using .net frameworks, as well as Continuous Development and Integration pipelines using Git(Bitbucket) and Bamboo.
In my downtime I enjoy building games using Unity3d. The Unity Engine utilizes c#, so I'm able to apply my 10+ years of experience with the language in a different and challenging way.

David was helpful in getting to the root of the database connection problem and getting my project setup in a jiffy. I was also able to pick his brain. He provided a lot of explanation and context as to why we do something.

David was very helpful. Setting up the environment proved to be a bit tricky.
While he was helping me fix my machine, he allowed me to drill him with questions.
He explained things thoroughly and was knowledgeable.

First time having a session like this and David was extremely helpful, knowledgable, and patient. Very friendly which was especially important for me as I am not well versed in the coding environment so his demeanour was very welcoming.
