I am a Marine Corps veteran, where I spent 5 years working in Signals Intelligence, or SIGINT. During that time I became cadre for a course instructing Marines how to use Linux for operations involving Wi-Fi. Gaining an increased interest in technology, I started teaching myself some simple Python where I discovered the magic of programming. After separating from the Marine Corps I further pursued this love for programming through education and received my Bachelor's of Science from California State University, Bakersfield. Throughout the projects I built while earning my degree, and the ones I've worked on for fun, I've learned that I have a burning passion for full-stack development and learning as many techniques and technologies related to the subject as I can. When I'm not writing code I like to spend my time chipping my way through the massive gaming backlog or spending quality time with family.
