Hey! You’ve stumbled upon my portfolio site and (occasional) blog, where I talk about my adventures in the land of software development. I studied Computer Science at Truman State University, attending a few hackathons and meeting some awesome people along the way.

While at Truman, I co-founded a company with my friends Nep Orshisho, Dustin Staashelm, and Phil Kegode to help students like us find internships at companies they love. Together, we learned a lot about the art of carefully balancing customer needs, engineering concerns, and business requirements to make a great product.

I currently live and work in Kansas City at a cool company called Informa, a leading provider of industry intelligence for agribusiness, finance, pharmaceuticals, and logistics. My team and I develop several business intelligence products, including SourceESB, Equipmentwatch, and Fleetseek. We’re also working to migrate some of our existing codebases onto AWS-based infrastructure, refactoring each one to make them more durable and cheaper to run.
