Rome was not built in a day. That's probably because they didn't have coffee.

My passions are fiddling with development tools and programming languages, learning as much as I can so that I can find ways to improve my development process. Oh, and code golf is pretty fun, too.

As software systems grow larger and larger, and are expected to do more and more for us, the importance of having a strong foundation for those systems grows. The recent CrowdStrike disaster shows just how important it is to ensure that software is built on a solid foundation of best practices, and is tested and verified before it reaches any user devices. My career goal is to help build those foundations to make bigger, better software, for the purpose of improving people's lives, not just the bank accounts of some executives.
