Welcome to my humble Github abode.

Grateful for you taking the time to visit my profile and projects. I am currently a software developer at Bitly since early 2022, focused on Golang and the backend. Before Bitly, I picked up Ruby on Rails in 2021. My hope is to hone these software skills and utilize what I have learn in software development, coupled with prior experiences in finance and goverment, to make apps that improves the world in some way. I enjoy learning to code and teaching what I have learned to others, as well as grow and encourage others to be challenged as a team and community.
