Automattically hired
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been on the job hunt for remote positions mainly in development and customer technical support.

Brewin’ up a Storm
Rebecca and I started brewing beer. Years ago (2012) I started brewing beer with my friend Alex. I gave it up when I moved to South Korea since my apartment was so small. However, since back to America, I started brewing beer again, and Rebecca was happy to join in. It’s a lot easier…

As part of my interviewing process, I had to make forms using ERB, build a Tic Tac Toe game, create a survey generator in AngularJS, and map out a computer using class diagrams. I also built a personal project called Walk2Dinner….
Flatiron School and my Brooklyn Life
It’s been three months since I last posted and a lot has happened. Most of the blogging I did in the past few months can be found on my technical blog but it’s all programming related so I decided to keep it on a separate site. The Good News First the good news. I finished the…
