Hi. I'm Rich,
a software engineer.

I've been in and around software development for 15 years. I have a Master's degree in Software Engineering and I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer developing web-based reading and literacy resources for elementary school teachers and students.

I enjoy creating solutions that address interesting and complex challenges. I'm always excited for opportunities to teach, mentor, and share my experiences developing software.
