After a fourteen-year career in information security working for the Department of Defense, I have decided it is time for a change. When my last position for the Army ended early in 2017, I took the time to examine myself, to consider my strengths and weaknesses, and come up with a plan for the next stage of my career. I love learning and thinking deeply about problems to find solutions. I want to do work that will make the world a better place for other people, starting with my family. I considered several options, but ultimately decided to become a front-end developer, with the further goal of becoming a full-stack developer. I have had an interest in website and software development for all my life. I maintained a personal website and the website for my church in the mid 90`s for a few years. I studied Information Systems as one of the focuses of my MBA where I learned SQL. I have read books on Visual Basic, C++, and Java. Often, I would solve problems in Microsoft Office using a macro, and I developed a SharePoint site for one office while working for the Army. For the time, studying front-end development is my full time job. Although, at times, it can be frustrating, I find that I enjoy the challenge, and find it intellectually satisfying. I am looking for an opportunity where I can use the skills I have developed, and where I can develop new skills. I am looking for a position where the work I do genuinely helps other people to solve problems and empowers them to pursue their dreams. I want to do work that will make the world a better place. I would particularly enjoy an opportunity that allow me to work remotely since I enjoy being with my family and do not wish to waste hours every week on a commute. I know that I still have much to learn, but if you are looking for someone like me who is passionate about software development, and who enjoys developing systems to solve real world problems, please contact me.
