I started programming at 7, learning BASIC on my mom's classroom computer. Aside from a brief stint as a designer in college and a few dark years caused by Perl, I've been programming ever since. Also my the way I've picked up ample devops and UX knowledge.
I help maintain a few gems right now (Hooloo <a href=" , doorkeeper-grants_assertion <a href=" , sidekiq-debounce <a href="), with a few more in the process of being extracted from the existing codebase  of hummingbird.me (namely, libraries for interfacing with MyAnimeList and AnimeNewsNetwork, as well as JSONAPI::Resources integrations with Chewy and Pundit).
I've been working with Rails for 3 years, with a focus on applying UX concepts to API design. I'm looking for a startup that can use my skills and help me develop new ones like native app dev or more thorough functional testing.
