I like to work on projects that are done well, with people that are passionate about technology, experts that I can learn from. I want to be mentored and want to mentor others.

I take pride in my work and like to learn and utilise the best-emerging technologies. I want to be included in the high-level architectural design process and work with a management team that understands the challenges developers and the industry face.

Industries that excite me are web and mobile application development, block-chain, dApps, game and Uber for x business models. I am not interested in working for the gambling or insurance industries.

I am able to work alone or in a team structure, but I find the collaboration of a team great for morale. I am eager to work with new technologies and evolve with them. I am also interested in working remotely.

In my spare time I pursue interests such as: functional programming, Perlin noise, game dev, rogue-likes, MTG, time-lapse, bouldering, travel, weird art, history, obscure music.
