Hi, my name is Tyler Hand, and I'm an application developer from Portland, Oregon. Currently, I'm building multiple web applications for Oregon's public schools, using Symfony and Ember. My background in development is focused mainly on PHP and Javascript, both in their raw form and using frameworks and tools such as Symfony, Ember, JQuery, and some working Knowledge of React. That said, I love exploring new languages and libraries to push the boundaries of my knowledge. Working with a small team, I've gained experience across all the phases of development, from meeting with clients to deployment. I pride myself in being the goto guy for coding help on my team.
Personally, I like to view myself as a calm and friendly individual. I enjoy biking, watching soccer, and trying new beers. Also, I have a bit of passion for old videogames, and I can kind of geek out over arcade cabinets. I'm always looking for an excuse to travel more.
