SKILLS

.NET: C#, MVC, SQL

I’ve spent 6+ years in high pressure, high performance environments; initially as an international athlete, then a
head-coach of a high-performance training center. Skills gained in this domain have been built upon in the world
of IT where I have rapidly progressed to a .NET/full stack developer and certified Scrum Master. With multiple
years of software development experience, coaching and managing, I bring energy, enthusiasm, discipline, and
thoroughness to any role I am assigned to.
Due to the wide range of exposure to challenge in growth-conducive environments, I have an outstanding
skillset that makes me perform equally as well in people skill and communication related jobs, as I do in highly
technical, low level work. From years spent both managing and coaching in one domain, and separately
developing software to a high standard, my skillset allows me to take any kind of role, from a person
management position to a software developer, and execute it to an incredibly high standard.

PROFILE
FRONT END: JS, TS,
Jan ’22 - Present
Part of a 4-team platform development department for a SAAS product. Co-led the implementation of React to
replace Knockout-JS on the frontend. Delivered a variety of BLI’s, getting experience to tech such as: Teraform,
Kubernetes/Docker, C#, MVC, React, TS, AWS, Azure, Integration/Unit/E2E tests. The teams were left to be
completely self-managed so I gained experience running meetings, collaborating with stakeholders and seniors
and managing the team.

FULL SOFTWARE
Nov ’20 – Jan ‘22
A very small tech department (<15), where I was often called upon to put on many ‘hats’ such as a BA, QA,
project lead, automation engineer, backend dev, frontend dev and scrum master. Though incredibly challenging,
I reveled in the challenges and opportunities to learn. I led the teams initial adoption of scrum and played a
large role in bringing on and training new developers to the team. I led on the implementation of Hangfire as
the background task management tech. I led and managed 4 developers on a .NET project to take our current
XAML-Windows application from an out-of-date platform to a brand-new cloud-based C# MVC solution. I led
and coached scrum for the team of experienced developers.
