A

Software engineer with over 15 years of experience. Bachelor's degree in computer engineering from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities. I'm a Marine Corps vet and enjoy 3d printing as well.

  • Why immutability makes your code safer

  • How LINQ pipelines are pure functional composition

  • How pattern matching and records make your logic declarative

Once you start thinking in functions, you’ll write cleaner, more reliable code — without giving up the structure of OOP.
