My name is Adam Long

I'm Adam and I'm a software engineer with experience in Ruby, Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, and React. I love building smooth and responsive web applications.

I'm excited to join your team so we can build something incredible together.

About

I have always had a passion for solving difficult problems and understanding how things work. After spending time working for the federal government in the field of Foreign Assistance and Food Aid, I decided that I wanted to work towards progress using a more hands on approach. Programming allows me to come up with elegant solutions to the world's biggest challenges.

When not building web apps, I can usually be found building something out of wood or metal. I also love indulging my inner nerd with a good video game, but I'm usually trying to reverse engineer how it works under the hood.
