Application Developer – Contributing to maintaining the software development lifecycle of many different applications.
I have a BA in Criminology. After working as a carpenter and then as a Child Support Officer, I realized the utility of software development and made the career shift. After attending Hack Reactor, I ended up building a few websites for different clients, while pursuing a full-time opportunity. I am the most proficient in JavaScript, specifically Node.js and React, but would love to learn about incorporating more technologies into my knowledge base.
Since CV-19 started, we have both been home more and decided to help our local animal shelter by fostering special needs cats.
Maui, my girlfriend’s family are native Hawaiians. Last time we visited we were only there for a week so we still have a lot to do.
I am an avid cyclist and tennis player. I used to compete in professional races, however, after a few crashes, I am less inclined to anymore. I also enjoy helping friends develop websites of their own and offering guidance. Family is one of the most important things to me and I love spending time with my girlfriend and our animals.
One of the more exciting jobs I’ve had was when I was an independent contractor. The company I worked for was building a million-dollar house at the time and was able to use a multitude of skills that I had accumulated over the years. I helped the electrician spread wire and outlets throughout the house, assisted the plumber and landscapers in proper water distribution, and got to work with an ARC welder to create structural welds as well as landscaping partitions. If you have queries about plumbing issues and concerns, you can try this out to see services that you might need. It is highly advisable to get a licensed plumber involved for such tasks.

I am excited to join the GeoMarvel team because of the versatility of the projects I will be contributing to. Being able to interact with the entire company on a daily basis really motivates me, whereas a larger company would stick me in the back of a cubicle somewhere. My mom has also been using GIS mapping systems for many years and it will be exciting to work on the other end as a developer.
