Erik Nicholas

Overview
With over 20 years of experience in full-stack web application development, he is completely at home in the world of programming. Whether it's a programming language, markup language, interpreted language, compiled language, or a framework based on another computer language: he either speaks it fluently or can learn it quickly. With a deep understanding of processors, memory, and networking, he optimizes everything for both low-power consumption and high-speed delivery while observing an upkeep of technical documentation.
When he's not programming for work, he's typically programming for fun, tinkering with Rasberry Pi, drawing characters, writing stories, hosting board game nights and D&D, or watching "edutainment" videos from creators like: SmarterEveryDay, Be Smart, PBS Space Time, SciShow, Howtown, German Science Guy, Kurzgesagt, Vsauce, Steve Mould, Tom Scott, Ben Miles, NileRed/Blue, 3Blue1Brown, The Action Lab, Minute Earth/Physics/Food, XKCD, and CGP Grey to name a few.
