Profile

Data is something that I'm passionate about. There is a lot of fun to be had with data. Professionally I work with customer data to achieve desired results for management. Personally I create things that don't have much purpose from the outside but maintain a certain amount of complexity in their design. I would like to grow my knowledge as a developer, work with larger data sets, and work more with iOS and ultimately the MacOS X platform.
