ABOUT ME
Love me some JS and SQL
Love me some JS and SQL

Hey! I'm a web developer currently working on healthcare applications, comfortable in front- and back-end.

I've been coding most my life with the rest spent in the military. Most of my time outside of work is spent on side jobs, helping newer developers when they're stuck or just hanging out/playing games.

For back-end I prefer Javascript (Node), Koa and PostgreSQL with a little bit of Redis and Elasticsearch mixed in here and there.

Front-end varies between React and Svelte and usually I'll go with Redux, Mobx or Recoil for state mgmt.

Love me some GraphQL

If you have any questions at all feel free to ask!

Not much in the way of portfolios but it's literally what I do all day (well, after I get home from work that is). Remember when tables were used for layouts? If not, good.

I learned it before Javascript and now, even though I prefer Vanilla, it's still in my top list of libraries for all my sites.

Always learning more but there shouldn't be much I can't help with. For front-end I tend to focus on (though not exclusively) socket.io, Immutable.js, React, Apollo, Redux, and Mobx.

Although I've dabbled in Windows Server setups, my niche is Linux (preferably Debian or CentOS). I got wrapped up in it by creating and managing a game server in 2008 for a large community, then went on my own from there for personal development projects and sites for friends.

- Fully functional backend (DB layer + REST API, GraphQL sometimes) - Made custom library to connect with external data source (Redis) - Often make custom utilities for use as needed (ex - custom XML-to-JSON I/O & mutations, tool for generating massive amounts of fake data and importing to PostgreSQL), and plenty more.
