Tyler Saballus
🧑💻 Software Engineer
Hello! My name is Tyler Saballus. I am a father of two boys. We live in Plainfield, IL with our dog Ella, our cat Sophia, and our bearded dragon Steve. I like being active and spending time outdoors. I enjoy bicycle rides around the local area and taking cool photos. When at home, I like to code, read books, or geek out on a good podcast.
🌅 About Me
I am a voracious learner. I am eternally curious. I believe in the power of compound interest and that an investment in knowledge gives the best returns. I believe that we should live for every day instead of hoping for a better tomorrow. The time is now. Let's do something awesome today!
