I don't like to call myself a Software Engineer despite my business card suggesting otherwise. I really just enjoy helping those around me in any way I can. But most of that invlolves writing code. I'm based in Chicago and would love to hear from you if you need help planning something, building something, deploying something, hosting something, scaling something, or anything in-between.
