Building makes me happy. I discovered this during my last year of law school when I started learning programming through online tutorials (huge thanks to @allardice getting me started on the right foot with his Lynda.com tutorials).
After law school, I became a developer full time. My dream had come true! I started in January 2013 as the second developer at Right Intel (eventually renamed to Sharpr).
I continue to work for Sharpr. I do everything from modern React to AngularJS and even some legacy jQuery on the front end with PHP, Python, and Node on the back end. I architect solutions to problems, meet with clients to do discovery, integrate with third-party APIs, fix bugs, and lead a team of developers.
Besides my day job, I build tools that solve my own problems. See them below.
