Hi there. I'm a software developer and programming language enthusiast with a passion for creating simple, beautiful solutions to difficult problems. And I especially enjoy doing so with Python.

I believe the way we solve problems is as important as the solution being correct. And that a focus on software crafstmanship—a combination of the art of programming and the science of software engineering—produces the best solutions. To quote an excellent bit of wisdom:

Beautiful is better than ugly.
Explicit is better than implicit.
Simple is better than complex.
Complex is better than complicated.
Readability counts.

I occasionally write about my experiences and open source my projects when I think they're worth sharing.
