Hello, I'm Tucker

A software engineer with too many hobbies.

I've been writing code since I was five starting with QBasic and Windows Batch Scripting on a Windows 98 computer my dad gave me. I'm both self taught and hold a BS in Software Engineering and Computer Science from Rose-Hulman.

Because I write code in my free time, I've experimented with a whole bunch of stuff: the cloud, OS development, Android Development, and a lot of stuff in between. Professionally, I've worked at Groupon, Notion, and Appfolio primarily focused on high-availability low-latency backend and full stack development.

I also have a YouTube Channel. It has absolutely no theme. I've made a lot of things like short films, videos about my projects, attempting to figure out once and for all if poptarts are ravioli, and accidentally getting a million views on a good-natured roast of a well respected science channel. I think you can find me in a hotdog costume too? Like I said, no theme.
