About me

As a college graduate with a passion for technology, I am excited to transition to a career in software engineering. I thrive in collaborative environments, and contribute to improving efficiency for major projects. With a background in economics, I have a demonstrated ability to analyze and solve logical problems. I am eager to apply these skills to the tech industry, where I will be encouraged to think outside the box and express my creativity. I seek to bring my unique perspective and diverse background to serve as a role model for minority youth also interested in pursuing a career in technology.

This project is definitely not Rotten Tomatoes. Nor is it Netflix. Nor is it IMDB. It’s R A N C I D T O M A T I L L O S. Very different! Our application uses Fetch API to display a collection of the most newly released movies. Clicking on a specific movie will take the user to the movie's own page, where the user can read more information and watch a YouTube preview.

This repo was created to serve as the backend for the Humor Me project. The purpose of this project was to teach ourselves a brand new technology. As Front End Developers, we chose to challenge ourselves by learning to write a back end from scratch using Express.js, Knex.js, and PostgreSQL.
