ABOUT ME
Passionate about programming and helping others build their software development skills.
Passionate about programming and helping others build their software development skills.
I have been a professional developer for over two decades and have worked at a wide variety of organizations on a diverse set of projects. I got into programming in high school (creating games) and my passion for it has never waned. It's extremely rewarding to conceive an idea, map out an approach/design and then implement it and have it provide value to others. I love solving challenging problems. I'm particularly adept at debugging. There's a true thrill to unraveling the mystery of a bug.

Brett was extremely helpful by demonstrated a diverse set of programming skills with a keen ability to evaluate and teach simultaneously. He stayed focused on my specific questions and steered me in the right direction once it was clear that the code elements I had selected wouldn't work. He is engaging and fun to work with. All this on a late Friday night!
