                    <p>
                        I enjoy the entire process of building things; backend,
                        frontend, product, etc.

                    <p>
                        I left school and my job at Chick-fil-A in 2022 to write
                        code full time. It's definitely one of the best
                        decisions I've ever made. I've learned so much since
                        then and
                        <em>still</em> have so much more to learn.
                    </p>
                    <p>
                        If you want to build something cool or connect hit me
                        up! I still dont know enough people to form a band yet
                        ;)
