I am a Full Stack Software Developer with experience in Ruby on Rails, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, jQuery, and Postgres. I utilize Test Driven Development with RSpec and deploy using heroku and use Git for version control. I have 14 years in EMS and currently licensed as a critical care paramedic. I learned a lot about working in teams and working under pressure from my time on the ambulance and use a lot of what I learned during that time in development. Thanks for checking out my page!

I live about 30 minutes from the Gulf of Mexico and love to salt water fish and go crabbing. Pompano's, Red Drum and crawfish are the name of the game. I also love to travel! I have visited Chile, Austraila, New Zealnd and Mexico and really enjoy experiencing other cultures.
So, that's all I can think of so...maybe I'm a bit of a workaholic but that ok. When you love what you do, its not work.
