I specialize in Fullstack Development, Automation Scripting, and Data Analytics.

Experience

A list of my experience gathered over the years.

Since graduating in May 2020, I have built up an incredible amount of experience from not only personal projects, but also from professional opportunities including internships, freelancing jobs, and full time positions. Check out my portfolio below to see demos of my projects!

Front End Development

This is where my graphic design experience meets my coding experience, which truly makes me appreciate the art of clean code. I have built up these skills by designing websites which include the following technologies:

  • Javascript
  • HTML
  • JQuery
  • ReactJS
  • AJAX
  • Bootstrap

Back End Developement

When it comes to back end development, for smaller scale projects I have mostly setup my web servers using php with a multitude of relational databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, and MariaDB. For larger scale projects that require more state changes, and hence more server resources, I have mainly used Node.js with MongoDB as my NoSQL database.

DevOps

In terms of the scope of my hands-on DevOps experience, I have hosted various web servers on the server space provided by my university. I have since been working on transitioning all my projects to the AWS cloud. I have also been taking advantage of the Heroku free tier to host and test my RESTful API's.

Version Control

When managing different code versions my most experienced approach is to use GIT with Github. I have worked on multiple Agile development projects which required bi-weekly scrums and frequent software versioning to fix bugs or make improvements.

Project Management Tools

In regards to project management tools, most of my experience comes from my Guavus internship. As a Support Engineer intern, I helped our team transition our ticket management system from Salesforce to Zendesk. Both platform have JIRA integration, so I was able to gain some knowledge on this work management tool as well.

Data Analytics

My experience with Data Analytics mostly comes from Database classes in college. We were assigned various projects which involved web scraping, data cleaning, and tracking metadata. I have included some projects below which demonstrate some of these skills.

Portfolio

Check out my latest projects.

Since my first interaction with code in my junior year of highschool, I have been constantly learning and working on a variety of projects and certifications to always keep my skills up to date with the latest technologies.
