Hey there!

If you're on this page you've followed a link on either an application or my portfolio site. Or maybe I linked something somewhere. Anyway, hello! Feel free to browse around my hobby code projects. I tend to work on them more often in the winter when Fargo is too cold for outdoor/garage projects. Staying warm and cozy with some code is better than shoveling snow in high winds ☕

I'm working on...

🏁 Track Simulator, a UWP desktop project for uplifting the timing system at a local drag strip. The old one is a less-than-pleasant user experience and troubleshooting is a royal pain, so after using it for half a decade I wanted to take a shot at what my own version would be like. I'm self-taught when it comes to UWP so having a project to tinker on is awesome.

I'm passionate about...

👩‍💻 Writing code that's easy to understand, maintain, and upgrade. I started my career being thrown into a huge legacy system, so I learned the importance of structuring and designing projects with the future in mind...and how miserable it turns out when you don't.

I'm curious about...

📱 Mobile development. A few years ago I poked around in Xamarin courses and that was interesting, so I'm stoked to see where things go with Microsoft's newest shot at cross-platform apps with MAUI. As long as a project does cool stuff, I'm down to learn additional platforms and skills. Just please don't make me do COBOL again.

What on earth is that GitHub profile picture?

🚘 My car! I love that little thing <3
