I am a full-stack engineer specializing in the VILT stack. I also enjoy infrastructure, architecture, database design, optimization, and leading and managing teams. I am passionate about developer experience and encourage a culture of collaboration, open and honest feedback, and quality engineering.
I live in greater St Louis, Missouri. My family and I go to and serve at our local church. I enjoy traveling, the outdoors, skiing, SCUBA diving, and international cuisines.
I also greatly enjoy photography, and do the occasional paid gig. If you’re interested in that side of me, check out my photography site, Patrick Takes Pictures, or you can follow me on Instagram. I shoot with a Canon 5D mk III and a Canon AE-1 (film).
