I am a 24-year-old front-end engineer living in Toronto, Canada. With over 3 years of experience, I've worked with numerous start-ups and major brands to develop their web presence.

Do you have a business or product that you are massively passionate about? I'm seeking an employer that can inspire in me that same passion and drive to go above and beyond.

Specifically, I'm seeking a full-time front-end engineering position that operates in a ruby-based environment where I can contribute to help designs go from mock ups to fully finished code that is cross-browser and platform consistent.

Outside of experience working with both rails and merb applications, I also have a very high level of expertise utilizing the popular ruby-based haml and sass markup languages. I worked closely with the creative team behind haml+sass for over 2 years and helped contribute ideas that eventually found their way into the future versions.

I have a professional, highly organized work ethic. I'm constantly trying to expand my problem solving abilities, skill level, and proficiency in coding. I have a constant thirst for continual education and best practices. I bring all these aspects and more to my employers, making me the ideal candidate for anyone looking to fill a full-time senior position.
