My name is Tyler, and I’m a 34-year-old software developer with a deeply-rooted passion for software development. Born and raised on a small Christmas tree farm just outside of Boone, North Carolina, I’ve always found inspiration in work and life through nature and especially the mountains. Growing up on a small farm taught me the value of hard work, dedication, and problem-solving, which I now apply to my career in technology. After spending my early years in the family business, I made the life-changing decision to pursue a college education, becoming a first-generation college graduate. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, marking the start of my professional journey in information technologies.

For the past two years, I’ve worked as a software developer, continuing to develop my technical skills and feed my desire to build impactful solutions. As I continue to grow in my career, I am searching for new challenges that allow me to innovate, collaborate, and push the boundaries of what’s possible in the tech industry.
