About Austin

The Open Road, heading west

After graduating from Michigan State University with a degree in Media and Information, I packed up my Jeep Wrangler and headed west to California, where I received my Master of Fine Arts in Screenwriting from California State University, Fullerton.

The Hollywood Sign

After several years in the entertainment industry, I decided to expand my horizons and further my knowledge about coding and advanced programming languages. Technology has always been a big part of my life, from my love of video games to building several computers on my own, and the prospect of constructing web sites and software as part of a team of great programmers is at the core of why I dove head-first into learning how to code.

A gaming computer

I also have several interests outside of development:

  • Video games
  • Tabletop games (Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering)
  • Sports (Baseball, Football, Skiing)
  • Comic Books
  • Film & Television

Services

If you're looking for someone to help with your next project, design your website, or need someone to get you through your next hackathon, I will put my best foot forward and work hard, no matter what. I have a keen eye for problem-solving, a passion for learning new languages and skills, and a strong desire to collaborate with a team of great programmers on cutting-edge technology and software.

A bag of dice.
