Self-taught full stack developer passionate about user-centered design.

What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster growth, creativity, and collaboration in a supportive environment.

I'm a self-taught full stack developer with a unique background in Speech-Language Pathology. My journey into tech has been driven by a passion for creating user-centered and accessible web applications. I have honed my skills in building and deploying full stack projects using modern technologies, particularly the MERN stack, Tailwind CSS, and RESTful APIs.

Throughout my career, I have successfully developed various projects, including a responsive personal portfolio, a cloud-based task management system, and an eco-friendly e-commerce site. Each project has allowed me to deepen my understanding of full stack development and enhance my problem-solving abilities. I am proactive, adaptable, and committed to continuous learning, always seeking to improve my craft and deliver exceptional user experiences.
