Additional Information

I have a strong work ethic, always striving to improve myself and take advantage
of the opportunities to advance that were presented to me. Despite the weak employment
market of the past several years, I have managed to keep working steadily with little gaps in my work history.

I am a team player. I am a person that can shoulder responsibility.
I am a person that others can depend and rely on.

It is a shame no one ever gave a shit.
They use you till they are finished with you.

Hack the Planet

A conversation with Ellen Ullman about her book, Living Close to the Machine. Incredible.

Still learning. I don't care if these scraps of paper have little to no redeeming value. This journey has led me to JavaScript, Blockchain, Smart Contracts, Artificial Intelligence. This is where I am at and this is where I plan on staying. Further HTML5 and CSS3 proficiency is on the list. I must also hone my Front End skills, putting a nice bow on the lot. It's all about creating income streams. I am the only one who will keep my ass from being tossed into the ditch.
