ABOUT ME

A little bit about me personally

Bringing things to life is what keeps me busy outside of work. I love learning a new skill and picking up a new hobby. I need to have at least one personal project going at all times, and I find the best part of making something new, is figuring out how to make it work. Bringing my childrens’ ideas to life is another challenge I love taking on. Even though their requirement requests may be ever changing, or almost impossible, it’s some of my favorite problems to solve. Who else would ask to be a red pizza robot with a door that opens, lights with buttons, a candy holder, and a t-rex on the back?
