3 fun facts about me:

  • When I was 11 years old, I was suspended for hacking into my school network.  Decades later I would use the same URL parameter techniques to build business functionality that led to significant operational efficiency.
  • When I was early in my Sales career, we needed new functionality for my team however a year after the request was put in it was still not prioritized.  That weekend, I downloaded the source code and updated what we needed and sent it to tech team to review so it could be implemented quickly.
