Current Projects
Employment
I'm employed full-time, and am currently working on some projects that really excite me, and getting my feet wet in areas of Software Engineering I'm unfamiliar with, including framework development, data engineering, and cloud architecture.
Personal Portfolio Revamp
I'm currently in the process of revamping my personal site using Astro and Tailwind. There's something so calming about static sites.
Discord Bots
I've loved the discord bot form factor for projects for awhile now. I love how cheaply the form factor can immediately create things that add utility. I'm standardizing a bunch of my bots into a single repository right now.
What is this site?
This is my personal site, and I hope to have it house my work experience, side projects, miscellaneous things, and anything I find interesting. If I've done this site right, it'll be an amalgam of things.
As with most pet projects, this site will almost certainly be undergoing tweaks and adjustments as I settle in, so please be patient if anything looks amiss. Also, I feel inclined to note that the views expressed across this site and within my blog are my own and do not reflect those of any past, present or future employers.
