About

I served in the US Army plus deployed to Afghanistan all in which gave me perseverance, moral values, and accreditation. With my drive and willingness to learn new material, I create outstanding software and complete tasks at hand in a timely fashion. Life is to short to lose my reputable stance so I strive for what I have earned and keep to morals for a better growth.

Success Stories
Story
In the service I blew out my back in a combat situation. When I was discharged I needed to find work but the only places willing to hire me were warehouses. Unfortunately the job required long hours of standing so my back could not handle the pressure. Instead I went back to school and learned how to program and now I am able to perform better then I ever thought I could.
