We're bridging the skills gap! Employers need qualified candidates. Teachers need to know what skills are missing from their curriculum. People need to find work. My hope in this role is to build software that matters to real people giving students a strong start to their career at places they'll be happier to work at.

Currently we are building applications using the latest [EmberJS](https://emberjs.com/) and [Ruby on Rails](https://rubyonrails.org/) technologies. Coming down the pipe we will be diving into [Stimulus Reflex](https://docs.stimulusreflex.com/).

Expect more Ember, community outreach, talks and open source work as I'm able. More updates soon to come!
