Hi there! My name is Tanner Dolby. I'm a Software Engineer with a background in Applied Math. I like working with JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Node.js, React, Python, and Java. I'm interested in building performant systems and helping others through software. I enjoy contributing to open source projects on GitHub and learning new things.

Interests
I like to go running, skateboarding, and enjoy the outdoors. I enjoy reading books and learning new things. When I'm not doing something outside, I spend most of my time reading, contributing to open source projects on GitHub, playing Chess, and making fun experiments on CodePen. I've taken an interest in Static Site Generators (SSG). In particular Eleventy, which this website is built with.
Books
Whether I'm reading for fun or to learn something new, it brings me a lot of happiness because there's always a new story I can dive into. Lately, I've been into fantasy, adventure, and sci-fi books, but I'm always open to book recommendations of any genre!

Education
I received my Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics from Arizona State University on May 11, 2020.
During my time at ASU, I worked as an Undergraduate Researcher in dynamical systems with applications in life and social science. I also worked in the Academic Success Center as a Supplemental Instruction leader for Differential Equations. I've always been intrigued by numbers and how systems work.
At the moment I don't have plans for attending grad school for math, but I'm interested in pursuing a degree in Computer Science at some point.
