About me
It is in my nature to seek challenging experience that force me to solve problems and learn. This is why my career has a clear progression through various technical jobs and has led me to a career in software development. I look forward to new challenges in a field that is constantly evolving.
A great benefit of being my teammate is confidence earned through professional interaction and reliability. I am committed to learning and becoming a catalyst for developing fluid team workflow. I strongly believe I can learn something of value from each individual I interact with.
Before becoming a developer I worked in a variety of fields including customer service, client care, construction and manufacturing. Experience has taught me that I really find value in a solid, yet adaptable plan that can become exceptional when executed with hard work.

Tools Used
A collaborative project with 2 front-end members using React and Redux, and 3 back-end members using Python. The goal of this project was to create a game using technologies that were new to us (Redux, Python). Creating the game itself was a stretch for us because it was unlike anything we had ever made, but we also learned a lot about limiting rendering and global state management.

Tools Used
A group project with 3 front-end students using React, NodeJS, ExpressJS, KnexJS, PostgreSQL and Cypress. The goal of this project was to solidify React skills as well as use back-end technologies we had never used. We were able to create our own API and database table to access data on cities that our UI could use. Most of the time was spent on learning the backend technologies and how to make them work.

Tools Used
A solo project meant to solidify React skills. This project was meant to create a project that manage state well, build good component structure and utilize information from an API that was new to me. This was the first time using an API endpoint that gave me useable information in the response from a post request. Smooth navigation and passing data between components was the main focus.
