I'm a full-stack developer who likes taking a product from database schema to deployed feature and actually shipping it. My path here wasn't the usual one. Before development, I worked as a personal assistant in a medical office, handling clerical and administrative work in a fast-paced, high-pressure environment. That role taught me to think on my feet, communicate clearly under pressure, and stay organized when things got hectic, habits that show up directly in how I build software today: methodically, with clear communication, and without losing track of details when priorities shift. I hold a BS in Information Technology, with hands-on exposure to SAP S/4HANA, and work primarily with React, Next.js, Node.js, Tailwind CSS, and MySQL. Recently, I spearheaded full-stack development of a booking platform for a photography studio (auth, payments, scheduling, client portal) and built two data systems for a regional government office, one handling digital archiving for 5,000+ records, another presenting years of socio-economic data to the public. I also earned a spot on my school's President's List and represented my school at a national essay competition, both reminders to stay sharp on the details while always looking for where to improve. What I bring to a team: adaptability, curiosity, and a habit of owning a problem until it's actually solved, not just scoped. I pick things up quickly and communicate well with technical and non-technical people alike. I'm looking to grow as a developer, contribute to real products, and work with teams building things that matter. Open to connecting or hearing about opportunities in the industry.
