I consider myself a builder in every sense of the word. Whether it’s building physical spaces, a sense of community, relationships, or software, I find great joy in working with my hands, my mind, and people. As my past experiences demonstrate, I have gained knowledge and skills in working successfully within and across diverse environments and populations. I bring a strong background in working collaboratively with teams and leading teams in a open minded, creative and solution-oriented way.
My passion for learning, building and exploring new outlets for personal growth has lead me on the path to developing software. On the road to becoming a developer I have found that many of the skills I have learned as a carpenter have helped me become a better programmer. My attention to detail has helped me strengthen my debugging skills and my ability to multi-task assisted me in delivering projects in a timely manner. In addition, I have acquired skills in Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, building RESTFUL APIs, TTD using Rspec and Enzyme, along with experience working with AWS and React.
Coming from a construction background I know first hand the complexities and systems of a construction project. I have seen the waste of materials and money, and inefficiencies in labor and energy, as a result of miscommunication and misinformation on jobs. The gap that Procore is bridging by bringing real-time updates to the people that need it most and helping companies maintain better organization and documentation is one of the reasons I want to work for Procore. However, I believe what really makes Procore the company I want to invest my energy and hard work into is its dedication to the well-being, growth, and happiness of their employees.
