Builder, Tinkerer & Problem Solver

I'm Justin Wagers, a computer scientist and industrial maintenance professional based in Kentucky. I bring a rare dual perspective to every project: a rigorous technical education paired with years of hands-on experience keeping complex industrial systems running. Whether I'm writing Python scripts, deploying web applications, or diagnosing mechanical faults on the shop floor, I approach problems methodically and build solutions that last.
