Learn more about my journey, services, and interests.
In 2019 I took the LSAT and began a path towards law school.
At the time I was a freelance photographer supporting myself
during that process. I made a career pivot towards engineering
as a result of the events of 2020. What drew me to this field
was the idea that I could learn something technical while
remaining creative.
I immersed myself in a self-guided curriculum, mastering
vanilla JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and Wordpress development
through a slew of online resources. By May 2020, I had already
taken on some freelance projects, applying my new skills in
practical scenarios.
Eager to continue to grow as an engineer and expand my
toolkit, I continued my self-taught education by learning
React and familiarizing myself with Gatsby. By July 2021, I
earned a front end focused engineering role, but within 3
months familiarized myself with Python and Django and moved
into the full stack. From that point I knew I'd found my calling.
I'm continuing to add to my toolkit now by learning Next.js
and Typescript. In fact this whole website is built with both
of those technologies along with DatoCMS.
Take a look at some of the ways I can help you below:
1.
I build visually appealing and intuitive user interfaces using the latest front-end technologies and frameworks. Whether it's creating responsive designs or implementing interactive features, I focus on delivering a seamless user experience.
2.
Implement server-side logic to support the functionality of your applications and business. From handling user authentication to managing data processing, I ensure the back-end of your system is robust, scalable, and secure.
3.
Design, build, and maintain APIs to facilitate smooth communication between different components of your system. I focus on creating efficient APIs that enhance the scalability and flexibility of your applications.
4.
Develop scalable database solutions tailored to your data storage and retrieval needs. I work with various database technologies to ensure efficient handling of data, from designing database schemas to query optimization.
