About Me
Hello, I'm William (I go by Billy)
I'm a Software Developer based in Eastern Kentucky with a distinctive professional background. Growing up in poverty while moving between homes due to my parents' addiction struggles, I transformed these challenges into motivation and dedicated over 12 years to public service as a law enforcement officer before transitioning to full-time software development.
My commitment to technology and programming spans decades. I bring expertise across multiple programming languages and frameworks, including PHP for WordPress plugin development, C++ for application modding, and modern JavaScript frameworks for comprehensive full-stack web development solutions.
Beyond software development, I maintain an active lifestyle through outdoor recreation in the Red River Gorge, fitness training, and continuous learning through technical literature. I also continue my public service commitment as an elected City Councilman.
