Career Aspirations and Future Plans

As of May 2015 my future is up in the air. I have several pending applications for various data analyst or application development positions and I'll see where any of those take me. I enjoy developing as part of a team and being able to see the results of my efforts rolled out into new solutions so I hope to stay somewhere in the field that allows me to work with code and remain hands-on.
