Intro

Behind Home Plate

Hi, I’m David Foster. I’m a full-stack developer and product owner looking for learning opportunities to expand my knowledge and provide leadership, vision, and excellent customer/client service.

Prior to becoming a web developer, I worked at "The Most Magical Place on Earth", as stage tech working with lighting, audio, & pyrotechnics. My last several years with Disney I was part of the training team for Entertainment Technicians maintaining and delivering training for pyrotechnics. As a part of my role I often quipped: "If it blows up on property, and we meant for it to happen, I had something to do with it!" I was also the webmaster for out team's intranet site. That is where my interest in coding started.

We moved back to Atlanta to be closer to family for our daughters. In an effort to have work/life balance, I started selling voluntary benefits including life insurance. How about that for irony, I go from working with explosives to selling life insurance!

Now I'm hoping to start my 3rd career...web developer and product owner. I can't wait!
