About Me

What I do

I build Web Applications and ReSTful APIs. I am interested in UX development and distributed applications. I love to mentor junior developers and help them grow their careers.

I’m really good at

On the back-end, I have written written ReSTful APIs in Python, Node.js, or Ruby. I am equally comfortable using frameworks like flask, express, or sinatra. I prefer using NoSQL datastores like MongoDB or Redis, but have used MySQL and postgres in the past.

For the front-end, I’ve made both normal websites and single-page applications. I love working on UIs in Javascript. I have done apps in Backbone.js with JQuery and, more recently, with React.js and Redux.

I have used the cloud extensively, both with IaaS and PaaS solutions. Currently I’m really digging Docker and have been enjoying the simplicity that using containers brings to deployment.

I also love mentoring junior developers. There is no cooler feeling than seeing someone you helped do awesome things.

Technologies I’ve Used
