About Me:
Multidisciplinary data analyst and developer with experience in data driven industries and a passion for blockchain. I have worked across multiple disciplines with diverse teams to continually drive adaptation of cutting-edge strategies. Over the past 2 years, I have leveraged my analytics and development skills to explore blockchain applications, perform deep-dive analyses into various cryptocurrency projects, contribute to various online cryptocurrency communities, and build my own blockchain applications by teaching myself Solidity. This practical knowledge has further heightened my enthusiasm towards cryptocurrencies and blockchain, driving further exploration into this growing industry of consumer and enterprise applications of blockchain.
Besides work I enjoy many hobbies such as building computers, golfing, and hiking. I have been building and mainting computers since college and it was the source of my inspiration to switch careers from patient care into technology and blockchain. When I’m not at my computer coding or building, I love getting outside to golf or go hiking. Golfing has been a hobby of mine since I was 12 years old as is a great way to be get outside and by competitive with yourself. I also love exploring nature by hiking trails throughout the tri-state area as a way to get away from it all and reset myself.
