My name is Robert, I'm a data/solutions minded engineer and my + focus is using technology, math, and practicality to solve + business problems.

Why should we choose Heroku instead of S3 for hosting? "Why" questions spark my curiosity and lead me to be more productive because I genuinely enjoy those sorts of puzzles. My degree and work experience have helped me as a "how" thinker, because engineering is about figuring out "how" to make something work, but "why" questions are my natural curiosity. -
