About Me

Full-stack Developer

Full-stack developer with a passion for learning and delivering exceptional client experiences.

I recently completed the Actualize Coding Bootcamp and I am excited to begin a new career as a software engineer! My experience working as a manager at Trader Joe's has instilled in me a deep understanding of how data can be used to drive sales and enhance customer experience.

I am a life-long learner and constantly expanding my knowledge of programming languages and frameworks, including Ruby on Rails, React, and Vue.js. My goal as a developer is to create innovative and intuitive web applications that make data more accessible and useful for individuals.

Whether it's building a wine recommendation app or experimenting with new technologies, I am always excited to take on new challenges and collaborate with others. Thank you for taking the time to learn more about me, and please feel free to reach out if you'd like to connect!
