Jack Killilea

Most of you are familiar with the virtues of a programmer. There are three, of course: laziness, impatience, and hubris. - Larry Wall

Hi, I'm Jack Killilea. I'm a SWE based in the Northern Virginia / Washington D.C Metro Area.

I've written Javascript since what feels like the dawn of time. Nowadays I'm working on HouseGuessr and building small Go lang CLI tools.
