Programming languages are my jam. Ever since programming my first PIC in the electronics lab of University to say ‘Hello world’ on a tiny greyscale LCD display, I was hooked. Things have moved since, but my sentiment hasn’t.

There are a myriad of services that get us closer to that modern stack deployment ideal, to date, I am proficient working with, but not limited to:
