About Me

Hello! My name is Calix, and I'm a self-taught software & DevOps engineer, using online resources to teach myself every single thing I know. I believe in learning by doing, so I try to model my projects around useful ideas that can be deployed to users around the globe. My skills in full-stack development allow me to take a project from an idea to a product.
