I've never introduced myself on this platform but it seems like a great place to learn and grow from one another.

I'm Scott.

I have around two years of professional experience.

My first position was a full-stack position at a .NET shop working on Police/Emergency software systems.

More recently, I write custom web-applications for a law firm using React JS. I have also made small, work-flow applications for them using ASP.NET MVC/Webforms, depending on the scope of the project.

I have dabbled with .NET Core Web API, Node.js and React-Native. These are the current technologies I study in my spare time.

My main passion right now is React JS. I'm planning on going to a React conference at some point this year (who wants to come with me?!) and, more generally, getting into more turn-key web application development is a goal of mine. Hopefully, I can build a solid foundation for what I hope will turn into the start of a small business in about 5-7 years. For any that are curious, I hope to provide cloud-based solutions for either the Pawn or Law industries (considering these are two areas where I have experience and small-business models are often applied in those sectors).

Love this community so far!
