Who I Am

I'm a developer at Parthenon Software Group. My friends describe me as down to earth, a good listener, well rounded, and very detailed. I like to see how things work and often take things apart simply out of curiosity. I have a full time job that I am proud of and a very supportive family. I love technology and gadgets, I'm always trying to find new ways to make someones life easier and more simple with new technologies.

I tend to gravitate towards Python, PHP, and Java languages and a few in Ruby. All of which you can fork or participate with me on github.

I love how music can shape my mood and it's what gets me through the day at work. I'm into indie, pop, rock, female vocalists and electronic, including:

Death Cab for Cutie, Garbage, Meiko, Jason Mraz, Beastie Boys, Jack Johnson, Evanescence, Katy Perry, Paul Oakenfold, Eminem, Coldplay, The Donnas, Kelly Clarkson, Studio Musicians, Beck, Gorillaz, Maroon 5, Justin Timberlake, Elucidate, Weezer, 112, Black Eyed Peas, The Delfonics, Paramore, Foo Fighters, Barenaked Ladies, Natasha Bedingfield, Mobb Deep, Snow Patrol, David Guetta, Modest Mouse, Ben Folds Five, Public Enemy, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Blitzen Trapper, LFO, The Veronicas, Daft Punk, Ice Cube, Frightened Rabbit, Michael Cera & Ellen Page, Matchbox Twenty, Augustana.

Along with music, I love movies with a good story line and possibly a twist to keep you guessing... A few all time favs are: Anything Pixar/Disney, Silver Linings Playbook, Hunger Games (though the book was better), Any DC Comic / Marvel film or Staring Mark Wahlberg, Jennifer Aniston, Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson, Will Smith.. Alright, I'll admit.. I love movies.

I'd tell you my favorite author but, I really can't get involved in a book... I've tried many times but my mind ends up wandering, I start thinking about other stuff and I just can't engage my imagination. I pretty much get through a couple pages and then end up having to re-read it all over because I just wasn't paying attention... So, I've decided it's not for me...
