I've spent most of my career working with non-profits, leading volunteers, developing programs, planning events, and managing budgets. Over the last two years I've pursued a growing interest in programming. In July 2013 was accepted into Epicodus, an intensive 4 month, forty hours per week web development class in Portland, OR. What I am learning during this time is preparing me to enter the exciting world of tech as a junior-level developer.
I live in Portland, OR with my wife and four beautiful daugthers. We like to spend our days playing games, reading Harry Potter, and throwing random dance parties.
I've had the priviledge to build a lot of fun projects during my time at Epicodus. Some of them are just games, others are fully functioning web apps, but all of them demonstrate a firm grasp on object-oriented design, test-driven development, and best coding practices.
