Welcome !!! 🎉 ✌🏽

I'm a frontend / full stack developer with:

  • 5 years of experience working with modern frontend technologies
  • 4 years working with backend technologies such as Node.js, Python, Building/Consuming API's and working with SQL/Databases.

I was previously a Support Engineer at Shippo. Now I am looking for a new role at a company with new challenges.

From a self-taught coder to leading tech teams, my career journey took flight after conquering a demanding bootcamp. The challenges of being self-taught didn't deter me; instead, they fueled my hunger to find a company that truly pushed my boundaries.

Growing up in a challenging neighborhood instilled in me a relentless drive for a better life. This, coupled with my passion for crafting innovative ideas and aiding others, forms the backbone of my motivation. As a frontend developer, my unique strength lies not only in technical skills but in deciphering user needs at a strategic level.

What sets me apart? It's not just about the code. I've got this knack for looking at a product and seeing it from the user's big picture. So yeah, as a frontend dev, I'm not just pushing pixels – I'm turning dreams into digital reality. Let's catch up sometime and swap tech tales!
