I'm a software developer, veteran, and artist with over 11 years of customer service and sales experience. As far back as I can remember, I’ve always been the creative type. I was the kid that spent all my time drawing crayon pictures to be hung on the refrigerator. As I got a little older, I participated in and won numerous art competitions and I was always the kid in class with all the sketches in the margins of their notes. Whether it’s drawing or building an app, if I’m creating something, I’m happy. I find the process of figuring out how to bring an idea to reality to be incredibly rewarding and I have a passion for learning.
