About Noah
I am a technical consultant at SER Group working to build and prototype Doxis solutions.
I am based in Cleveland, Ohio and enjoy the heart and soul of the rust belt. In my spare time, I enjoy programming, photography (especially film), running, cooking pescaterian meals, and being outside. I also play the saxophone, drums, and piano (although I am terrible at it). I have been doing web development since 2004 when I wrote my first website using PHP. Since then I’ve become interested in .NET, Java, C/C++, Pascal, and Javascript.
Here you can find some of my more personal interests, such as photography and blogging. To get a better idea of who I am and what I do, I encourage you to check out my Blog and follow me on Mastodon. I’d love to discuss any of the topics above (or anything else) with you. Feel free to contact me (Signal: noahw.80

Professional Summary
I am currently a Presales Technical Consultant at SER Group. I work closely with our sales team to build proof-of-value demonstrations for prospective customers. These demo cases are tailored to specific customer use cases and require complex scripting, automation, and configuration to build.
I work on a small team and context switch frequently to adapt to the current needs to demo. I also work with the strategy team to build new integrations and solutions that allow our product to advance in various market research rankings (e.g., Gartner, et al).
I have exclusively worked within the services and customer-advocate space in enterprise software during my career. I currently live and grew up in the Cleveland, OH area; I received my B.B.A. in Computer & Management Information Systems from Kent State University in 2013.
