Zachary Rizer

I'm Zach, a software engineer with experience in
JavaScript, Python, React/Redux, Express, and Flask

With a background in Astrophysics, Philosophy, and Music, I'm always looking for the next thing to learn and tackle.
I'm the type of person who thrives on a challenge: analyzing the puzzles and problems of an issue,
breaking down the way things tick, and then pragmatically approaching the path to the solution.
