About Me
I'm a Technical Writer, Editor and Full Stack Developer in Southeast Pennsylvania. I like to create webpages, but I also enjoy working with databases and APIs.
In my free time, I'm usually either drawing, collecting and researching rocks, taking pictures of flowers, or playing a handful of Sonic games. Sonic and the fan community around the franchise is what got me into web development at such a young age. I also love to travel around the coastal areas of the United States & Canada and see new cities, when I can. So far, I have been to Philadelphia, New York, Boston, Washington DC, Los Angeles, Seattle, Vancouver, and Toronto. I've technically passed through San Francisco, but didn't get to see it. The city I've visted the longest is Los Angeles, where I've stayed for a couple summers.
At home, I enjoy working on narrative pieces and planning for games. If I can't write an idea out, then I will draw it. When I can, I like to use my skills to support others. Whether it's to help people learn, or to somehow improve a part of life, I try to find how I can make a positive impact in my community and beyond.
