Results-driven full-stack engineer with experience in Agile methodologies and a proven ability to translate business requirements into working software. Proficient across the stack — from React components to AWS Lambda functions. Powered by caffeine, curiosity, and cat therapy.
My path to software engineering was anything but a straight line — and I think that makes me a better engineer for it. I spent years as an ESL teacher, breaking down complex ideas for adult learners. Turns out that's basically the job description for a great developer.
After completing General Assembly's Software Engineering Immersive, I dove straight into production work — shipping a veterans' document platform at Trajector, then joining Brewer Science's Enterprise Applications team where I build cloud-based tools that real employees rely on every day.
I'm equally at home in React components and AWS Lambda functions. Understanding the whole stack makes every layer of your code better. Also: cat therapy is an underrated debugging strategy.
Every feature starts with the person who has to use it. Elegance means nothing if the UX is confusing.
Knowing how the DB query affects the API affects the React state makes you better at every layer.
Working software over perfect software. Agile isn't just a methodology — it's how you learn fast.
Curiosity, a healthy nap schedule, landing on your feet when deploys go sideways.
Building cloud-based applications on the Enterprise Applications team using React, AWS Lambda, MySQL, and Jest — delivering scalable solutions that enhance efficiency for internal customers.
Gathering business requirements, implementing features, resolving bugs, and managing support tickets, leading to improved service quality and streamlined employee workflows.
Developed custom document generation software using Python, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB — enhancing the experience for veterans applying for disability benefits.
Worked in an Agile Scrum environment using the Atlassian product suite to boost service quality, productivity, and team efficiency.
Built four full-stack web applications using JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Python, and various frameworks — deepening knowledge of software engineering principles and best practices through pair programming and Agile methodologies.
Led classes for adult learners acquiring English as a second language. Designed structured lesson plans with measurable student progress outcomes.
Open to new opportunities, collaborations, and conversations about full-stack engineering. Also open to cat pictures. 🐱
