I am a person who strongly believes we can change our world through our focus, dedication, and outlook on life. If there are any desires for a better life, change your world. I dig a couple sites that help build resumés so peep my profiles at Careers and LinkedIn (below).
I’m not a hard person to get in touch with. Feel free to ping me. If hands-on help is needed, we can jump in a Google Hangout or Slack. I love talking about a lot of different languages/technologies (Ruby, Javascript, Go, Objective-C/Swift, Java, Dart, etc). If you’re in the great state of Texas, Houston specifically, hit me up. We can grab some lunch and talk dev.
