About

Most of my day is spent helping developers ship secure high quality software faster. In my spare time I enjoy chatting about software development, technology, tabletop/video games, Warhammer 40K lore, and many other topics. I also host two virtual chats which everyone and anyone who is kind, supportive, and respectful are welcome to join: - https://weeklydevchat.com/ - https://legacycode.rocks/ Feel free to reach out if you want to chat.
