Interests
As a developer my two passions are design work and automation. In essence, making art and being extremely efficient! During my downtime, I also enjoy video games, listening to music, and reading books. My favorite genre is fantasy and I love books with great world-building. If I'm bored, I also like to research new development technologies to implement into my personal projects and perhaps introduce them to my team.
