Because I'm a professional!
Server-side Javascript
Though I'm a fan of several programming languages, nothing is as prevalent today as JS. I jumped on the Node.js train early on and have enjoyed the ever-evolving (sometimes chaotic) ecosystem ever since: monolithic web APIs, serverless architecture, new runtimes, et. all.
Technical Writing
Taking complex software systems down to their fundamentals to effectively explain how something works and how to use it. Whether it's a guided blog post or technical documentation, I like to create reference material to help other developers understand a piece of software.
System Integration
Connecting the dots with reliable and pliable pipelines. ETL, warehousing, data portability, reporting, real-time updates. From one platform to another. Custom or off-the-shelf, I make sure orgs have the right information in the right place.
Interactive Apps
It can't all be back-end magic. At the end of the day, humans are why we build things and they need to be able to use our software. I enjoy building interactive programs of all sizes. From robust customer-facing apps to slim command line interfaces for developers.
