About Matthew

#introduction

My name is Matthew Watkins. I'm a software engineer, a husband, a father, a blogger, and a Mormon.

What I do

I currently work at a Morrisville, NC ecommerce company called ChannelAdvisor. We are a SAAS business, working to make selling online easier for businesses. Seriously great place, seriously good people.

Why I do it

When I was young, I always wanted to be an inventor. I always dreamed I would be some Wayne Szalinski, creating some new and innovative products that would make peoples' lives easier or less tedious. Software development allows me to design, build, and invent like that every single day. It's awesome.
