About Me
Hi, I'm Ethan! I'm a software developer and Air Force veteran. I served 4 years as a mechanical engineer in the United States Air Force, stationed at Tinker Air Force Base, OK. While in the Air Force, I worked in several different jobs, such as being the subject matter expert for the T-6 air conditioning and pressurization systems. Prior to separating from the military, I completed a Microsoft Power Platform Apprenticeship with Accenture Federal Services (AFS) in St. Louis, MO, where I gained hands-on experience with Microsoft Power Platform and associated components (Power Apps, Power Automate, Power BI, Dataverse, etc.) through a robust curriculum that combined virtual training modules with real-world projects.
I'm currently working as a Custom Sofware Engineering Senior Analyst with AFS focusing on Microsoft Power Platform development. I'm also working through a Full-Stack Engineer certification via Codecademy, with relevant coursework including: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Git & GitHub, React, Redux, Express.js, PostreSQL, Swagger, OpenAPI, and DevOps Fundamentals. As of February 2025, I am 41% complete.
On a personal note, I'm happily married to my wife, Nicole, since August 2020. We have two beautiful sons named Trevor and Nathan, one is a toddler and one is an infant. We also have a 6 year old labrador retriever named Apollo who loves to go on walks and play tug-o-war!
