Hello, I'm Andrew.
Thanks for dropping by.

About

I have three days in a 24 hour period: one work day, one personal day, and one sleeping day. Outside of my frontend job, I dedicate a lot of my personal time learning about finances, (recently) reading more books, and spending time with my fiance. I have a big-floofer cat named Bud, and he only bites me 10% of the time when he purrs.

Never stop growing. Your structure academic life does not end after highschool and/or college, but instead extends the rest of your life. I strive to be deliberate with my time, and hope I help those the way those helped me when I needed them most.
