Ruby on Rails Developer

I am a self-taught career changer. After several years of learning ruby, rails, and coding as a hobby, I decided it was time to make this my full time job. I love creative thinking combined with logic to build a product.

I want to make meaningful products that serve people. I want to be challenged and grow. I want to work with a team of people where I’m a good fit.
