About

Hi, I'm John.

I'm a software and web developer in Harmony, MN, finishing an A.A.S. Software & Web Development at Minnesota State College Southeast in May 2027. After that I plan to work toward a bachelor's degree in Software Engineering.

The long way here

I've been using computers for about 25 years, and for more than 15 of them I've been the person friends, family and coworkers call when something breaks. Before I studied software, I spent over ten years in customer-facing work.

  • Parkway Market & Coffeehouse, Lanesboro. I managed the grocery store and coffee shop, including ordering, stock and the online store's order fulfillment and customer service.
  • Gundersen Harmony Care Center. I've worked as a dietary cook since 2019, and stepped in as acting manager for scheduling and ordering.

That work taught me things that matter in software too: listen to what people actually need, communicate clearly, and finish on time when the schedule is tight.

What I'm looking for

Looking for a software development internship for summer 2027. Get in touch or see my resume.

Off the clock

I still like making things

Outside of code I model and sculpt in 3D, make music, and prototype games. I also spend a lot of time with my wife, our family and our two dogs.
