Andrew Vogel
Developer
Andrew is a Florida native who lovingly calls Louisiana his second home. Andrew's career as software developer began in 2015 when he worked for a marketing agency building Ruby on Rails apps. In 2017, he joined the Hashrocket team, where he further continued to hone his Rails skills and learn new things, like Elixir Phoenix. Andrew has worked for clients of all sizes, local businesses and large scale startups, across many different industries. Some of these include healthcare, finance, home services, marketing, e-commerce and non-profits. When asked about what he loves most about development he says, "I really enjoy solving problems for end users and giving them solutions so that they can be more effective day to day".
Andrew enjoys networking with other developers - he's a member of RubyJax, Jax.Ex, and NodeJax. He helped run the ReactNative Jax for a few years, and gave multiple talks. He is also a hosting emcee of AncientRuby, a Hashrocket run Ruby Conference.
Outside of work, you can find him learning new technologies, snowboarding, building mechanical keyboards, woodworking, or homelabbing.
