Hey there, my name isJustin Faulkenberry
I'm a full-stack software engineer currently searching for a full-time position in Austin, Texas. I'm dedicated to expanding knowledge and taking on challenging problems. Driven, highly motivated, enthusiastic, and eager to learn new technologies and methods.
A little about myself
Hi, I'm Justin. I'm a software engineer. My desire to learn to code started back in 2018 after my time in the military. I decided to enroll in a coding bootcamp and from there learned numerous skills, mainly JavaScript, its framework React(which this site is built with), HTML, and CSS. Since then I have also been persuing my degree in Computer Science, where I have learned even more languages such as Python and C++. I have also worked extensively C#.
Technologies I'm currently learning:
Interests
Some of my other interests include astronomy, hiking, history, movies, music, philosophy, reading, robotics, running, swimming, and travelling.
My dream and long-term goal is to one day start a robotics company that would develop autonomous robots or rovers for space exploration, specifically a submersible rover that would be able to explore the methane lakes of Saturn’s moon, Titan.
