Most of my daily work involves software engineering in some sort or fashion. I have worked on library automation software, CRM software for field service, visual SQL tools for making interactions with databases easier, and most recently mobile apps to help people get healthier.

All of my side projects can be found at my consulting company’s website. Open source stuff is available on GitHub.
