What's your role?

As a junior full stack developer, my main priority is to provide assistance to senior developers wherever it is needed. Daily activities will include but not limited to fixing bugs, implementing tests and creating new features. One of Harled's core cultures is to learn and to share your knowledge. I hope to create lessons for others that will help them improve as developers and make their lives easier.

What is the secret to realizing a successful software project?

When working in a group environment, having effective communication between team members is essential. Nobody likes working in an environment where there's tons of misunderstandings and confusion. All it does is cause frustration and no work gets done on time.

What emerging technology or industry are you most interested in?

Transportation. After decades of poor decision making in regards to transportation, our society is finally recognizing our mistakes and trying to implement solutions. The lack of reliable public transportation has caused Canadians to be too reliant on personal vehicles (myself included). Although progress is slow and EXPENSIVE, I am excited to see new transportation projects in the works.

What's your word of the day?

Dream.
