What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my full-stack development skills and contribute to impactful projects.

I am a Full Stack Developer with 5 years of experience in the software development lifecycle, specializing in full-stack .NET development, responsive UI design, and API integration. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, followed by a Master's degree from Texas Tech University, where I honed my skills in various programming languages and frameworks.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led projects that improved efficiency and user experience. At iTarks, I designed a modular microservices architecture that significantly enhanced scalability and reduced downtime. My role involved developing RESTful APIs and building responsive user interfaces using Angular, which streamlined application performance. I am passionate about mentoring and have guided over 150 students in Agile methodologies, fostering collaboration and improving project outcomes.

My technical expertise spans across multiple platforms and tools, including Azure, AWS, and various database technologies. I thrive in collaborative environments and am committed to delivering high-quality software solutions that meet client needs. I continuously seek opportunities to learn and grow, aiming to contribute to innovative projects that make a difference.
