Hi 👋, I'm Matt

A passionate software engineer, photographer, artist, traveler, critter, gamer, and avid D&D enthusiast. So, basically I'm a giant nerd.

  • 🔭 I’m currently working on an Open Weather Web App, as well as writing my own Web Scraper API

  • 🌱 I’m currently learning Next.js and Python

  • 👨‍💻 There are a few live demos of my projects available at imattking.dev

  • 💻 Some of my application testing and other sandboxes can be seen on my Codepen

  • 📸 If you're interested in seeing a few of my photographs you can do that here: imattking.com

  • 📫 How to reach me: [email protected]

I love creating, and building things with code. I can just as easily get lost for hours fine-tuning CSS selectors or iterating through array methods, as I can retouching a photograph, playing a video game, watching an episode of Critical Role, or reading a book.

Software engineering is my passion, and it is at the forefront of my endeavors! My background is rooted in more 'aesthetic' disciplines. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism (specializing in video production) from the University of Georgia, and a Master of Fine Arts in Photography from the Savannah College of Art & Design.

My greatest artistic inspirations can be found in the works of Ansel Adams, Dieter Appelt, Joseph Beuys, the philosophies of Roland Gérard Barthes, the complete imaginative storytelling prowess of the Critical Role cast, the writing of both Neil Gaiman & Nick Flynn, animation from Japan, and anything involving dungeons, dragons, or both dungeons and dragons.

My personal philosophy has long read: Light. Changes. Everything.


Some of my favorite words from the minds of others:


"What's past is prologue."William Shakespeare

"If I have seen further, it is by standing on the shoulders of giants."Isaac Netwon (by way of those before him)

"I am the master of my fate,
I am the captain of my soul."
William Ernest Henley.


Going forward:

I have an interest in contributing to open source projects, and I want to build things that help make people's lives better and that make the world better a place.
