About me

I'm a voracious learner, and can't get enough of new ways to solve problems with programming. Highly effective pair programmer, writer, and communicator. I love a good bug hunt, and care deeply about writing and designing clean, clear, efficient code. If I'm not writing code, I'm probably cooking, brewing beer, or baking bread. In a past life I was a political philosopher.
