More than
a GitHub profile.
Hey, I’m Dave.
I like figuring things out.
I work full time as a lead driver at WM. Away from work, my curiosity takes me into code, security, automation, and the occasional idea that turns into a project.
I earned my bachelor’s degree in Information Technology in 2023. My day-to-day career took a different route, but building and learning are still a part of my life.
I’m also a husband and a father. This site is a home for that whole person: the work, the experiments, and whatever comes next.
