What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can continue to grow my technical skills and contribute to impactful projects.

I'm a dedicated fullstack developer with a strong foundation in both front-end and back-end technologies. Currently pursuing my M.S. in Applied Data Intelligence at San Jose State University, I have a proven track record of delivering responsive applications that enhance user experience and streamline business operations. My experience includes architecting database schemas and integrating payment systems, ensuring seamless functionality for clients.

In my role as a Python instructor, I have honed my communication and leadership skills by designing and teaching engaging curricula to students of various ages. I thrive in collaborative environments and enjoy mentoring others while sharing my passion for technology. My projects, such as creating full-stack clones of popular applications and developing an ETL pipeline for traffic data analysis, showcase my ability to tackle complex challenges and deliver impactful solutions.
