-summary: 'I am a builder at heart and love tinkering and learning how things work. I began programming while working in Accounting where I saw an opportunity to automate repetitive month-end close procedures. After deciding I wanted to work on those types of problems full time, I went back to school and earned a degree in Computer Science. My favorite types of projects are the ones that automate, simplify and help my teams reduce the manual effort needed to get things done.

+    I love to solve problems, and have always been interested in how things work. 
+    In my career this has manifested in an interest in making processes more efficient and using data to better 
+    understand the 'why' behind what was happening in the business. I programming while working in Accounting 
+    where I saw an opportunity to automate repetitive manual month-end close procedures so that more of my time 
+    could be spent doing the month-over-month account change analysis. I learned how to use Python, VBA and 
+    PowerBI to automate running the reports and calculation of monthly accrual entries, removing over 30 hours 
+    of unnecessary manual work from each period end and enabling my team to deliver the financial results to 
+    leadership ahead of schedule. After deciding I wanted to work on those types of problems full time, I went 
+    back to school and earned a degree in Computer Science. My favorite types of projects are the ones that automate, 
+    simplify and help my teams reduce the manual effort needed to get things done or ones that get to work 
+    with big data to help make informed decisions. In my role at AWS as a Containers specialist I get to work 
+    on those projects by assisting our partners with their GitOps, CI/CD, Infrastructure as code and 
+    Containerization projects. I am currently interested in leveraging my past Finance and Accounting experience 
+    and newly aquired technology skillset together by moving into Data Engineering'
