Bio

Hey! I'm Grey, a full-stack software developer. I am experienced in technologies such as JavaScript, React, Ruby, Rails, HTML, CSS and more.

I'm a born-and-bred North Carolinian who moved to Australia six years ago. I recently received my Aussie citizenship oi oi oi!

Prior to entering software development, I worked in consulting and strategy (including for McKinsey and Woolworths) in addition to working as the COO of a nonprofit.

I am passionate about LGBTQ mentorship, and have started my own mentorship program, qmentor. I am also a big fan of the NBA, karaoke (especially Mr. Brightside) and eating peanut butter by the spoonful.
