Summary
I've been involved with the web in some way for over 20 years. I started in a startup company before anyone knew what a startup was. From there I worked most of my career in marketing and advertising with building websites and digital marketing material. 5 years ago I moved back into the startup world working a product servicing the restaurant industry. My focus has been frontend development but I've also been involved with the full stack development.

Aim High Air Force
In the last 10 months, I've been working on an application for the US Air Force called Aim High. Aim High is an Android and iOS application that allows users, such as parents, spouses, and significant others, to follow a loved one going through basic training in the US Air Force. The application is also used by US Air Force recruiters to communicate with their recruits during the onboarding process, as well as offering many more tools to help recruiters.
