longer version

• I graduated university with a degree in English but got interested in China and after graduation I moved to China to learn the language.
• Once my Chinese was good, I worked for Johns Hopkins University in a Chinese-speaking role.
• While I worked for JHU, I paired up with my friend Dror and operated a media startup called Buy Buy China to consult on consumer-facing Chinese tech companies.
• Consumer tech led to software, so I moved back to America and went to a dev bootcamp.
• I worked at JP Morgan and mostly did backend (Java, Python, PHP).
• I did a sabbatical in London.
• I contracted for Capital One and BNYM and did backend (Django, Flask).
• I did a sabbatical fixing up an old house.
• I went to United Masters and worked on payments (Python).
• Since then I'm at Capp working on data engineering.
