Hi everyone! Just joined this site after hearing about it on a podcast (I think it was Adventures in Angular).

I've been programming professionally off and on for a long time, since first learning on a TRS-80 model I (gah, I am old). For most of my career I've been a professional trumpeter, but have shifted way more heavily into software development in the last few years, and loving it. There's something very cool about a job where I can work for a few hours straight and then be annoyed that I have to stop to go to the bathroom, lol!

Mostly doing Angular projects for clients on Upwork at the moment (and maintaining structuredpracticejournal.com), but also working on learning testing, Flutter, and generally writing better code.
