About Me

Previously studying accounting, I made the decision to take the path of most Resistance and become what I have always wanted to be, a software developer. I have a passion and desire to add value to people's lives and build something meaningful, which is apparent in my portfolio. I enjoy using React/Redux and Node.js or Rails to build full-stack applications that solve problems and make life easier for users. My previous background's focus on optimization and attention to detail help me flourish as a developer. I approach problems with optimism, curiosity, and tenacity to deliver creative and optimized solutions.

When I am not programming, you can catch me playing video games with friends, finding a new dish to cook up, bigging up my chest, or finding a new skill to learn.
