I'm Tyler Gester, a Software Engineer from Boston, MA.
I currently work at the Advanced Simulations center at Lockheed Martin. I am involved with several projects in many different computer languages including C++, C#, Java, python, JavaScript, and SQL. All of my current projects are in R&D and change rapidly. I graduated in 2018 from the University of Alabama with a double major in Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering. Outside of work I enjoy backpacking, playing ultimate frisbee, skiing, flying, and videogames.
