About Me
I'm a V School graduate ready to break into software development as a full stack engineer. One day I want to work on videogame adaptations of board games. My primary focus right now is learning what I can in order to open up opportunities. In my spare, my partner and I have a hobby business where we create geek themed bath bombs, crochet, laser cuts, and other items and then sell them at local conventions. I also love running mythic dungeons in World of Warcraft, playing Magic: the Gathering and board games.
Ideal Workplace Values
Environmentally friendly, diverse, lgbt+ friendly, patient, employee focused, and trusting. I want to know that they are more concerned about employee health than the bottom line.

💪Skills and Strengths
My Neuro-exceptional talent
I have a high attention to detail and good pattern recognition. If I'm really interested in a subject, I will never get bored once I start working on it and will absorb information like a sponge. I want to fully understand why everything works and will anticipate corner cases before others do.
