What I'm looking for

I’m seeking entry-level software engineering roles building mobile and web apps with React/React Native and Firebase, on collaborative teams offering mentorship, impact, and growth.

I am a computer science student and early-career software engineer with hands-on experience building mobile and web applications. I contributed to the Gathr app used by over 1,000 active users and improved performance and reliability across production features.

During internships I built frontend components and admin analytics dashboards using ReactJS, React Native, Next.js, TypeScript, and Firebase, improving app performance by ~30% and reducing crashes by 40%. I’ve also led projects integrating MetaMask for BNB payments and delivered real-time analytics that cut admin workload substantially.

I am a collaborative problem-solver and campus leader (Women in Tech president 2024–2025) who iterates with clients and teammates to deliver maintainable, user-focused products and measurable improvements.
