  • Software Developer @ IBM in Houston, TX

    "From an early age I have always enjoyed solving puzzles; software development is a natural puzzle with infinite pieces. Figuring out that wild bug is always the highlight of my day. The only thing I can say I dislike about software engineering is when you can't trust your build environment. As a result, misleading results are obtained from running tests on broken code checked in by fellow engineers."

  • "I really get an opportunity to craft beautiful and strong software which I know will be an overall help to others and do good in the world. With that comes the responsibility of knowing that your mistakes could cost someone in either grief or even money sometimes. Being able to identify, minimize, and learn from those mistakes is what makes a good Software Developer III."
