## About

Kon'nichiwa! I am John, a software engineer with years of experience in software development. Currently working at a Stealth Startup (Manchester, England), previously at Smartqix LLC (Ohio, USA) and Tirith Technology LLC (Ohio, USA). I am constantly learning and very keen on crafting the type of software experience I'd like to use and you can fall in love with. I write here from time to time.
