Intro
Howdy-- I'm Dean! I'm a creative, analytical developer who loves constantly learning, working on well-designed projects, and contributing to anything I have an interest in. I'm drawn to code as a creative medium that uses logical problem-solving and goal-oriented workflows. I have a wide variety of types of project I'm interested in-- open-source, nonprofits, education, and companies with a community-based approach are particularly interesting to me, but I find most tech projects fascinating and am nothing if not an adaptable team player! Outside of coding, I love cats, plants, martial arts, video and tabletop games, and a billion other hobbies I don't have time for. I'm currently looking for jobs in the Portland, OR / Vancouver, WA area, or remote.
