What I'm looking for

I'm looking for an entry-level IT support or junior developer role.

I built DevDuel, a multiplayer iOS coding game where two players race to solve the same Python problem in real time. I took it from prototype to external beta through TestFlight and App Store Connect as a solo developer.

For DevDuel, I added ranked matchmaking, an ELO-based rating system, and a single-player campaign, using Firebase for authentication and backend data storage. I also integrated sandboxed server-side code execution to run and grade submitted code safely.

My Cyber Security diploma from Nova Scotia Community College included hands-on work with Windows Server, Active Directory, Group Policy, and DHCP, and I earned CompTIA Network+ certification. Customer-facing work at McDonalds taught me to stay patient and clear with people who have questions or concerns; I'm currently working toward CompTIA Security+.
