Dad. Web developer. Paranormal & cryptid investigator.

Pinned post

I was a PHP/Laravel developer for 20 years. Then I became Director of Development. In my spare time I read and watch videos on esoteric and/or weird stuff like ancient architecture/civilization, UFOs/UAPs, sasquatch/bigfoot, dogman, ghosts, near death experiences, energy work, etc. Husband and father or two. Home theatre lover. Recently became a ColdSpot.org paranormal investigator.

Today was my last day at Mercury.

Looking for my next thing.

I have over twenty years of experience in software development and several years in management.

I like functional programming, low level systems, distributed systems and networking. I’m great at systems thinking, performance, API design and keeping the user experience in mind.

Also teaching and streaming programming content.

Looking for remote work primarily. Based in Canada.
