Software Engineer

Bringing my love for creativity and problem solving together!

Hello there, friend! I am a software engineer based in New York with a background in IT support and product testing. I am passionate about creating impactful and visually stunning web applications. My technical expertise includes JavaScript, React, TypeScript, Redux, Styled-Components, Tailwind, and Git.

Some cool things I have done include automating testing processes with the power of JavaScript as a Senior Technician at Consumer Reports, creating a collaborative web application that helps people of all skill levels find their ideal plants, and developing a personal project to track guitar tunings for experimenting on the guitar.

In my free time, I love playing guitar and tackling exciting challenges in the world of video games, specifically the Souls series!
