Hi, I'm Andrew! I'm a full-stack web developer with a particular interest in front-end development. 💻 My specialties include Javascript, React, Node, Express and Ruby on Rails.
I've spent most of my professional life working in Construction, 🔨 which I believe has helped me create a strong work ethic and ability to work with a wide range of tasks. I also used to be in charge of training apprentices which helped create a passion for passing my skills on to others.
Aside from tech, my passions include hiking, 🥾 traveling, 🌏 reading non-fiction 📖 and cooking. 🍳

Clean on-boarding experience for small and large organizations.
I predominantly blog about my experiences with learning the Rails framework, with the intention of writing a list of educational blogposts that I wish I'd have had when I began learning.
