				<em>30-second elevator pitch:</em> I am a software engineer by trade and linguist by training. My
				master's degree was computational. It employed NLP, recommendation, machine learning, and container
				technology (Docker). I worked for large corporations (Dell EMC) and small ones including start-ups of
				various sizes (1, 5, 30+ employees). I have built technology in various areas including agriculture (<a
					href="https://fort-supply.com">Fort Supply Technology, LLC.</a>), data backup (Mozy, Dell EMC), and
				education (BYU's <a href="https://ce.byu.edu/">Continuing Education</a> and <a
					href="https://is.byu.edu/">Independent Study</a>). Notable projects and experience range from
				preparing for datacenter crash and hacks, datacenter crashes (2+), building a custom code linter for my
				team which saved hours of work, standing up thousands of external VMs to simulate both actual user
				experience and to test an entire datacenter simultaneously. I have made reports and pages load 1000
				times faster for end-customers by optimizing queries and code.
			</p>
			<p style="font-size:larger!important">
				And I definitely know how to use git--I use <em>git rebase</em> regularly with ease. Somehow a lot of
				engineers miss the memo on the importance of knowing git/merkle trees through and through.
