Hello there

You've made it to my personal website! This is the place for all of my musings in blog-post format, a portfolio of some of the projects I've worked on, and just generally a place for me to add a little bit of myself to the exabytes of data that makes up the internet.

What do I like to do?

I love to code obviously. I also love gaming. I play a ton of games in the Legend of Zelda series, as well as many others such as Sea of Thieves, the Ori and the Blind Forest series, and a variety of Pokémon games. Otherwise I spend all my free time with my family.

What am I working on?

Besides the many things I work on at my place of employment, I love to work on many side projects at all times. I've written about my GitHub Graveyard before and have absolutely added to that pile of side projects since writing that post. My primary side project is Novella, a modern distraction-free writing application. I've had a lot of fun writing it. Check out my post on that if you're interested.

My current employment

I am a Team Lead Software Engineer at an HR tech company called HiBob. The company I worked for previously, Mosaic, was acquired by HiBob and I joined via that acquisition. There are many interesting problems to be solved and I'm loving it. Previously I was a Senior Software Engineer at GoReact, and before that, a Software Engineer at Domo.
