Software Engineer @ CVS Health
I am a software engineer specializing in low-code development, with a strong focus on building secure, scalable applications using Quickbase and cloud-integrated automation platforms. My background spans from WordPress deployments to enterprise-grade business systems, giving me a unique perspective on how people interact with technology at scale.
Since 2021, I have led the development of production-ready Quickbase applications, engineered API integrations across services like AWS, Trello and Zapier and delivered automation workflows to cut operational overhead. My work consistently emphasizes collaboration, user-centric interfaces and real-time reporting to empower all users.
I focus on blending application development, business process automation and platform interoperability. My current toolbox includes Quickbase, AI, Python, TypeScript, React, SQL and platforms such as Zapier. I also maintain a private homelab where I prototype integrations with self-hosted LLMs and AI-driven tooling.
My ongoing goal is to design systems that simplify complexity, reduce manual effort and expand access to reliable, high-performing technology.
This is pretty cool. Thank you for sharing the Radio Bostrom link.
Those Hello Fresh meal boxes look excellent. I've been tempted to have my groceries delivered to me directly as well. There are people in my life who do just that and really enjoy the service.
In terms of what I've purchased in 2020 that I recommend others do as well, that would have to be a reliable home computer. Maybe that sounds too basic or commonplace, but having access to a quality PC is important these days. And I didn't understand that (as clearly as I do now) until I went a prolonged period without one.
Thankfully modern computers are generally well-built and a bit more powerful than at any other time prior. So I got amazing value for my dollar.
