About Me

Hi, I'm Will, one of the developers for BrightFuse. You can check out the BrightFuse Development group (http://www.brightfuse.com/groups/brightfuse-development) to see what we're up to.

I mostly taught myself how to code until college, where I pursued a degree in computer science at Georgia Tech. While learning the academics in class, I also began exploring the area of web development in my own time. I decided that web development was definitely the way I wanted to go.

Today, I continue my interest in web development as a developer for BrightFuse. I am fortunate to have a career that suits me so well, and I continue to learn more about it every day.
