DESCRIPTION

Hi, I’m Senator Conrad Horton (yes that's my actual name) a full-stack software engineer specializing in building cool stuff that empowers humans. I’ve had a lot of fun in my career, and my resume definitely reflects that. I’ve had the opportunity to work on everything from robots to video games. Currently I am developing software for scientists to better conduct surveys of marine life in an effort to make their jobs much easier.

When I was a kid I wanted to work with computers. Of course what I really wanted to do was make video games. Although my focus has been on building web apps, I do have a professional developer credit for a minigame I created for the EduGuru series released by The Game Creators. I have also developed and released games of my own as a hobbyist--Missile Commandish and Lander: Blackout.

When I’m not coding, I’m usually: shredding on my guitar, acting as a dungeon master for my ongoing Dungeons & Dragons campaign, playing BattleTech, or binging video games. Occasionally, I even go outside sometimes (usually when my wife takes me for a walk) /s.
