Patrick’s background combines formal business training with a Codesmith software engineering education, enabling him to translate complex requirements into pragmatic, maintainable systems. He’s curious about emerging tech, dabbling in machine learning, voice platforms like Alexa, embedded tinkering with Tessel 2, and languages such as Python, Ruby, and Rust.
