About me

Hey there. 

I'm Flynn. If you've made it here it likely means you'd like to know a little more about me. Here's some really condensed info about me that's relevant to the content you're likely to (eventually) find here.

Professional hobbies (skip these if you hate monie) 

Here's some of my monetizable skills 💸 (yea)

• I'm a software developer 🧑‍💻

  • I do both front-end (websites) and back-end (servers).
  • I have been programming in JavaScript for over a decade, and come with knowledge extending all the way back to ES5 (when thigns were built the hard way)
  • I also have varying experience with Typescript, C/C++, Elixir, and Rust.

• I'm decently savy with a computer 🖥️

  • I sparingly operate severs all over the world, with nearly a decade of Linux system administration knowledge to back me up.
  • I use macOS, and Windows on daily basis for both professional and personal endeavors.
  • I'm exceptionally decent at making slides. Give me an excuse to make a whole set of them, and I'll probably hate you - but at least you'll have a sexy set of slides 👍

• I like clean websites, where all the high-tech fancy features are abstracted away 🌐

  • (look around)

• I'm an aspiring 3d model and printing enthusiast 🔧️

  • I am pretty savy at using FreeCAD, and enjoy prototyping and the iterative design process involved in producing consistently good prints and designs
  • I've been using and maintaining several printers - trying to unlock all of their secrets

Personal facts (skip these if you hate people) 

Here are some of the things that make me another walking meatbag

• I'm a father of two lil' ones 👨‍🍼

  • They tell me they like my cooking, so I suppose we're okay.

• I like making things 🔨

  • This website, software solutions, hardware solutions, children - all sorts of things.

• I'm (mostly*) Irish 🍀

  • I have a lot of potatoes in my family history, and I hope continue to plant more.
  • *I'm mostly Irish, but like every other white person I'm likely just euro-white-garbage-deluxe-wholesale-mix, which I have no problem with.

• I enjoy cooking 🍳

  • Nothing photo-worthy, but my kids at least eat whatever I cook for them - so that's better than garbage

• Music is my jam 🎹

  • I am always tuned in to something while I work or relax
  • I have a lot of background in music-theory and composing parts for multiple instruments.
  • I still play keyboard and piano to this day, but I limit myself to that.

• I'm a filthy casual (PC Gamer) 🎮

  • My (all-time) favorite franchises include Borderlands, Bioshock, and Red Alert (mostly 2)
