What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills and fosters growth in a collaborative environment.

I am a dedicated full stack developer with extensive experience in building and optimizing web applications. My journey began with a B.A. in Philosophy, where I developed a strong foundation in logic and problem-solving, which I later applied to software development. I have worked with various organizations, including government agencies, to create solutions that enhance user experience and operational efficiency.

Throughout my career, I have successfully migrated applications to Azure, refactored codebases for improved performance, and implemented CI/CD pipelines for faster deployments. My work at Chickasaw Health Consulting involved significant contributions to ASP.NET applications, where I focused on user experience and code maintainability. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and deliver value to clients.

Education

Degrees, certifications, and relevant coursework

University of West Georgia

Bachelor of Arts, Philosophy

2008 - 2017

Activities and societies: As part of the Computer Science curriculum, I learned to develop applications using the Java language and the Eclipse IDE. I enjoyed software development so much that I pursued an internship with Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) who became my first employer and where I got my start in the industry.

My undergraduate education was focused on general philosophical enquiry such as matters of cognition, existence, ethics, religion, and logic. My Symbolic Logic course was extremely helpful groundwork for understanding and evaluating code. My degree program did not have a Minor requirement, but I took courses in Computer Science.
