Anthony E. Nichols

I am a Software Engineer at BNG Team working on ConnectBooster. I have a high interest in Security, Programming and UI/UX. I have lived in Grand Junction most of my life but recently relocated to Fargo, North Dakota. I would consider myself an active person with a craving for adventure. Some of my hobbies and interests include skydiving, traveling, fishing and hiking.
