What I'm looking for

I’m returning to full-time roles in 2026 after a planned career break for family caregiving, while remaining technically active.

At SAS Institute Inc., I developed distributed forecasting services in Go and Python that reduced forecast latency by 15%. I also modernized a React and TypeScript frontend, increasing automated test coverage by 13%.

I consolidated microservices into a Docker and Kubernetes architecture on AWS and implemented asynchronous communication with Kafka and RabbitMQ. I also standardized REST APIs, reducing integration issues by 20%.

At ConsultAdd Inc., I developed Java and Spring Boot microservices and integrated generative AI features using Spring AI. Earlier, at Amtrak, I built and maintained Amtrak.com features in Angular and prototyped a Go service for a third-party cookie audit.

Since November 2025, I’ve been building a full-stack movie streaming platform with a Go/Gin REST API and React/Vite frontend, including JWT authentication and AI-driven recommendation scoring. I’m returning to full-time roles in 2026 after a planned family caregiving break, during which I remained technically active.
