Full-stack software engineer

About Me

Hello! I’m a full-stack software engineer based out of Chicago, IL. I love to code and build things for the web.

I graduated from General Assembly’s Software Engineering Immersive program where I studied Javascript, Python, React and Django among many other things. It was here that I found my passion for coding and my excitement for building things from scratch. I have always been one to push myself to learn and grow, which is why I have such a passion for coding and software. The tech field is always changing and I strive to keep up and change with it.

Before software engineering, I was an audio engineer, studio manager and musician in Chicago. I produced, wrote and recorded with numerous amazing artists of all different styles and backgrounds. My past experience in the arts has given me a unique and creative perspective on collaboration and building applications.

I strive to make the web an inspiring place. Please see some of my recent projects below.
