Hi, I'm Liam

So, Tell Me About Yourself

Short and sweet, I'm a passionate hobbyist living in the Midwest.

I spend about half my time in the kitchen, with the other half divided between music and electronics. I love learning about the world around me, and finding new ways to appreciate the little everyday things.

What about your professional skills?

For the resume word salad, I have:

• Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science

• 3 years of IT experience

• CompTIA Network+

• Mishmash of experience in Python, C, Javascript, HTML and CSS (see example here)

• Extensive skills in SQL and Excel (think PowerQuery and best practices for lookup table names, not just VLOOKUP and sorting)

• AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

• Experience coordinating with vendors for SaaS deployment

Throughout everything, there is a sustained theme of using my skills for the good of others, and doing my part to make things easier. Solving problems once is nice, but creating the scaffolding for others to solve them easily is better.

Do you have any unprofessional skills?

Oh man am I glad you asked

Look, I can't put these on a resume, but I still think they're very cool. So, in no particular order, I...

• Play violin

• Bake sourdough bread

• Run a bulletin board system (BBS) off a Raspberry Pi.

• Contradance with other nerds

• Simulate baseball leagues in both tabletop games and video games
