About Jason Chodera

I believe that great products come from great teams. I\'m passionate about working in an environment where creativity and free-expression are valued, not suppressed. I believe that passion and determination are more important qualities than what someone knows. I care about pushing my peers to reach their full potential in a collaborative environment where we can celebrate each others successes. I believe that the best code is concise, expandable, and single-purpose. I understand that programming languages are tools with their own strengths and weaknesses and selecting the right tool for the job can be the difference between success and failure. I believe that even as global communication becomes more and more ubiquitous, we isolate ourselves more and more from human contact. I strive to bring compassion and empathy to the work environment, to break down the walls we build up around ourselves, and to never forget that by working together we can move mountains. I believe inertia is the enemy. Life\'s greatest rewards are reserved for the select few with the never-ending commitment to act until they achieve.
