Currently working as a Principal Software Enginner for Innosol. Innosol is a local Kansas City startup that is focused on building graph analytics technology for various industries.

Worked on FanThreeSixty's fan engagement and customer data platform as a Technical Lead/Architect for FanThreeSixty's Sales product. There are interesting web application and distributed systems and processing problems to solve everyday.

Lead efforts to help modernize some legacy applications using the microservices architecture pattern. This included microservice REST services and single page JavaScript applications to replace and improve existing applications.

I came back to Garmin to work in a more official software development role and help expand on the software I developed in my original role in the warehouse. I was able to work on the ERP team and learn a lot about the IT systems behind a major international corporation with unique hardware, online sales, and internal tool requirements.

My first official software engineer job. This was a great team and I learned a ton about working to solve a specific set of problems with a custom software product suite. This was a small company at the time and there was a real sense of directly impacting clients which can be very rewarding and this has stuck with me.

This is where I really dove into software development. It started with spreadsheets and MS Access databases which I eventually turned into custom web applicatons that were critical to some of the warehouse business processes.

Mentored students enrolled in the full stack engineering curriculum.

I assisted mentoring and instructing students in a 6 month full stack web development bootcamp.
