About me

My background in the Navy familiarized me with the fundamentals of electrical theory, troubleshooting, and leadership before my transition into the civilian world. I was first exposed to programming while I was finishing my BSBA at the University of Colorado and decided to pursue a career in software development.

I chose to attend the Turing School of Software and Design to help develop the skills necessary to excel in a professional team environment. Thankfully, a lot of the skills I had learned as a Sailor regarding leadership, communication, and problem-solving allowed me to develop a strong analytical mind and interpersonal skills.

My journey has helped me grow into someone with the technical abilities and mindset to persevere through difficult challenges and learn from them. I look forward to pursuing software development positions that allow me to apply these skills for the benefit of others!

Platebook is a license plate based social media website where anonymous users can share images of notable driving, make posts, and make comments on them. This serves as an alternative method for drivers to share their thoughts and hopefully reduce road aggression. By providing a platform for drivers to express themselves, it may provide a chance for drivers to express gratitude, address traffic safety concerns, or pursue missed connections.
