ABOUT ME
Python expert with a focus on web technologies, microservices and devops. I also do some frontend work (React and Angular experience)
Python expert with a focus on web technologies, microservices and devops. I also do some frontend work (React and Angular experience)

I'm about solving problems. Usually I do that by writing code. Often I do that by leading the efforts of others. I get a lot of satisfaction from the constant learning and puzzle solving that comes with my profession. I get even more satisfaction from contributing to a successful and worthwhile product.

I also get a lot of joy out of mentoring - I've taken people who know zero Python to being capable developers, and I've managed to inspire a few people who thought coding was totally beyond them to take the leap. I'm good at explaing stuff and I like it.

I have made daemons, guardium plugins, web applications, internet crawlers. I have used python's multiprocesing to simulate large networks in order to test application layer protocols, as well as lower level routing algorithms. I've used python to interact with many different database types including some home grown ones. I've done a lot of very different things with Python and can usually make it dance. There are very few aspects I haven't had to dig into at some point or another. I am familiar with many of the built in libraries.

I use it when I must - usually in combination with some python based web framework. I can make things look reasonable but tend to rely heavily on jquery-ui themeroller for that.
