‍1. Describe what you do in 5 words or less. ‍

Full stack web development

2. What is your favorite part of your job? ‍

The small user base of our tooling application leads to really rewarding outcomes. All bug fixes, new features, or improvements have a visible impact almost immediately; I can push out a new feature and see the team or annotators benefit from it that same day. It's very motivating and keeps my drive constantly grinding.

3. What’s your favorite hobby?

Quilting. After being in front of a computer all day, it is very therapeutic and the perfect artistic outlet.

4. What’s something you are currently (or just finished) listening to, watching, or reading right now? ‍

Just finished Downton Abbey and loved it.

5. What’s the best life or professional advice you’ve been given?

Don't be afraid of breaking stuff - Alexander Hagerman
