Hey, I'm Daniel. I'm a full-stack software engineer with experience architecting, building, and maintaining systems that support a variety of different business needs at enterprise scale.
I thrive in environments using leading-edge technologies, and always have a number of projects of my own in progress at home. I enjoy discussing technology with colleagues and friends.

hobbies
Running
Running is great. I've been running/training for the last 4-5 years as a fun past-time that I can enjoy with other friends who run. At the time of writing this, I've raced 4 marathons, and have ran a couple ultramarathons. My goal over the next 5 years or so is to run all of the major marathons. My fastest marathon time as of writing this is 2h 43m 25s at the Marine Corps Marathon in DC.
Old School Runescape
Old School Runescape (OSRS) is my favorite game of all time, one I've been playing for nearly 20 years. I've got a big community of friends from around the world that I play the game with. I recently earned the rank of Grandmaster on my 'Ironman' OSRS account.
"Working"
I am lucky to consider what I do for a living as one of my hobbies. Outside of my job, I enjoy building websites and applications for fun. A couple of my recent home projects include app that I use at the gym called ISOMETRIC and an app called FauxBingo that's used by my OSRS community a few times a year to run a 'Bingo'-style game.
