What I'm looking for

I’m ready to bring immediate value to an entry-level software developer role.

On Red Protectora, a student-built animal shelter platform, I built a secure Cloudinary image-upload flow and added database migrations to link stored records to cloud images. I also developed a reusable React Leaflet map component used across the Adopt, Needs and shelter pages.

After completing the Full Stack Software Developer bootcamp at 4Geeks Academy, I’m ready to bring immediate value to an entry-level software developer role. My background in African Studies and international cooperation includes research, analytical writing and contributing to a policy report on international development.
