About

I've been in the software world since high school. I started by writing code for arduinos and other microcontrollers as well as learner languages such as C++ and python to help me in that venture. I also got exposed to CAD and 3d printing as well as laser cutting, CNC routing, PCB design, and several other facets of the engineering world. My next step was attending a software bootcamp called resilient coders. During that time I picked up javascript, nodeJS, and react. Those skills allowed me to get a full time role at a defense contractor called defense unicorns where I developed a project using gatsbyJS & graphql and also got introduced to devops and learned technologies such as kubernetes and docker. I also got mentorship experience teaching a fellow engineer working on the same project. After working for defense unicorns I became a freelance developer where I was able gain business as well as technical experience. I worked on projects for companies such as Salon-hairapy, Mickey's gaming lounge, and Lenoxfit. I believe my broad range of experience with all these technologies will enable me to effectively succeed in any position.
