About Me
I'm a web developer with a background in small business, project management, and construction. Although I've always had a strong interest in computers and tech since childhood, I discovered my passion for programming while running my small but successful exterior remodeling company. As soon as I was able to sell the business, I dived into coding full-time and discovered Galvanize. I created this web app as my capstone project while taking the 6-month web development course there.
