Hello there! I'm Jon and I switched to a career in tech in late 2014. I've been writing code since 2017 and I've been breaking things ever since! I'm currently working as a developer for a global logistics company. I work mostly on backend projects that include languages like JavaScript, Java, and Go. I am also a Certified Scrum Master.
Observe the vast and considerable technologies I employ to bend the interwebs to my will.

> superfluous content creation
I wanted to tinker with some Gatsby and use a headless CMS for something - and thus, my blog was born. I do not write as well, or as often, as I would like to, but I do enjoy the opportunity to get some thoughts out there into the interwebs. It also never hurts to play with markdown parsers and syntax highlighters!

I tend to learn a lot more when I'm buidling things. Below are a smattering of personal projects that include all sorts of tools and platforms. You'll see some Mongo, some Firebase, some React, some Gatsby, some Go, and even a little bit of Vue. I tend to deploy on free services to keep costs low, so you'll see Netlify, Render and Railway in most of my build configs.
