What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

As a Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer with over a decade of experience, I have honed my skills in designing, developing, and maintaining complex web applications. My journey began in 2013, and since then, I have embraced both support and leadership roles, showcasing my tenacity and creativity in every project I undertake. I pride myself on being a quick study, team-oriented, and highly dependable, which has allowed me to contribute effectively to various teams and projects.

Throughout my career, I have successfully architected and built internal content management applications and single-page web applications that have resulted in significant revenue increases. My technical toolkit includes a wide range of programming languages and frameworks, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, and Python, among others. I have a strong foundation in data analysis and machine learning, having completed advanced coursework at Stanford University, which complements my software engineering expertise.

I am passionate about leveraging technology to create innovative solutions that drive business success. My experience spans the entire software development lifecycle, from requirements gathering to successful deployment, and I am eager to bring my skills to a forward-thinking organization that values creativity and collaboration.
