What I'm looking for
At Smiddy's Codes, I design, develop, and deploy responsive web applications, translating client requirements into working features and interface specifications. I built search tools, database features, and filtering functionality for the Sun and Ski Resource Guide, supporting 15,000 monthly searches.
I build React and Vue applications with API integrations and reusable components, and maintain code through Git and GitHub. I also create Figma component libraries and prototypes to clarify requirements for client websites.
At Johns Hopkins CTY, I teach Python, algorithms, debugging, and software development through interactive games and application projects. I review student code and develop learning materials, exercises, and assessments.
At TripleTen, I coach learners in QA engineering and testing concepts, offering feedback that supports independent troubleshooting. Across my teaching work, I’ve also developed STEM curricula and supported educators through curriculum planning and professional learning.
