Surfer with a knack for DevOps and software development

Hi—I’m Alex. I'm extroverted, enthusiastic, and friendly, I’m a part-time student majoring in Mathematics and Computer Science (first love still is physics, though!) with 5-6 years of combined work experience in software development and IT. My personal philosophy seeks compassionate/constructive solutions to critical issues with clients. I'm a detail-oriented writer and an autodidact concurrently enthusiastic toward learning new skills from others. When not working, can often be found either surfing and cycling at the beach!
