I have been working in the IT industry since 2018, most specifically for higher education organizations.

Jaunty is an annual Minecraft server that I run for a small community of friends. Every year, we gather and play a slightly modded version of Minecraft for about a month. I am the sole developer for the project, and use a variety of tools & technologies to glue it all together. Feel free to check out its website for more information

DCOM is custom decomissioning software I wrote during my tenure at Phoenix College. Technicians provide an asset tag via a web interface, which is then utilized by the backend to remove the associated endpoint from Active Directory, MCM and Sophos. The software is written using Go and is still in production today.
