Professional Summary
From Factory Floors to Debugging Wars, didn't start in tech—I started on a factory floor, leading third-shift crews and challenging systems that overlooked people. When health changes forced a pivot, I didn't just adapt—I rebuilt. Today, I'm a full-stack developer with a servant leader's heart, building automation tools, intuitive interfaces, and team cultures that thrive. I believe technology should serve people and I'm ready to bring that mission to your team.
