Hey there! I’m Andrew, a senior software engineer craftsman, and technical team lead in Southeastern Wisconsin. I once thought I was destined to be a mechanical engineer. I reached that goal only to realize that mechanical engineering was not for me. It is not the daily activities, nor mathematical modeling, and certainly not of all the huge and amazing machinery. The pace of the industry was too slow for me.

At the time I was spending most of my off-work hours learning about single-board computers and microprocessors. Thinking that working in the tangential realm of interfacing the physical world with the digital world would be a great fit. Rather than sit and wait for the next best working arrangement. I leaped back into the classroom part-time seeking a master's degree in Computer Science. My excitement about the software world took root quickly and grew exponentially. Armed with a passion for solving the world's problems has never left me. My focus has only changed to different types of issues that I want to solve. This career change has opened my world to entirely new possibilities. Shaping me to be even more passionate about teaching what I know to others who have a desire to learn. I hope that you can learn something from me and that I will one day learn something from you.

While there are many technologies I have used in my career.

Here are some of the highlights:

• C#
• .NET Core
• .NET Framework
• Java
• Microsoft SQL Server
• Postgres
• MySQL
• HTML/CSS/JavaScript
• Docker
• Terraform
