What I'm looking for

I’m currently studying full-stack engineering through an online bootcamp with Springboard.

At Larosa’s Pizzeria, I operate the touch-screen system that controls dough sheet size, pizza size, and belt speed. I adjust settings and handle the paper and cutter changes needed to keep dough moving smoothly through the equipment.

As a Package Sorter at DHL Global, I packaged products for transport and sorted packages into airplane cans for their destinations. At Kroger's Supermarket, I helped customers with purchases and questions, and operated the cash register.

I’ve also worked as a Banker/Cashier at Hollywood Casino and as a Tutor at Cincinnati State. I’m currently studying full-stack engineering through an online bootcamp with Springboard, and my listed technical skills include HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Java, and SQL.
