Buck Tower

👋 I'm a software engineer, currently based out of San Francisco. As a fullstack developer, my skills are most focused in the Javascript ecosystem. However, I strive to be a T-shaped developer. Although Typescript is the most common language I work with everyday, I have professional experience with Python, Golang, and even Swift. I'm interested in learning whatever part of the stack I can be useful in.
