Who Am I

My name is Matthew Ager and I am a .NET and Mobile developer for Sandhills Global. I love playing basketball with my buddies, hiking and camping all over Arizona. I've picked up guitar and can't seem to put it down, inspired by my guitar virtuoso friend. I'm eager to continue developing my career in software. My greatest passion in life, undoublty, is programming.

I have been writing code on a nearly daily basis since the winter of my freshman year of highschool. Over that period, I have created projects which have been used and enjoyed by millions of people. The feeling I get knowing something I have created is being enjoyed by so many people is like nothing else in the world.

I look forward to new opportunities to develop my professional career. I love working on code in teams and comradery of developing software with others drives my passion further. Therefore, I am always excited to meet and work with new people, to expand my skill set and help expand the skills sets of others.
