About

Once I discovered my passion for web development I couldn’t get enough. I enjoy every moment, because there is always something new and great to learn. The best part about programming that I enjoy is problem solving because there is always a way to find a solution. Working through the problem manually, simplifying and optimizing my steps. For instance, thinking meticulously and making a plan that will lead to a working solution.
I graduated from Lambda, a six month Computer Science & Software Engineering Academy. I've engaged in pair programming while working on code challenges and projects. Used Git workflow on all my projects, along with agile software development. Hands-on experience with client and server testing. I've learned different programming languages, along with different frameworks that have taught me how to create a front and back-end websites and applications.
I look forward to working in a company that will give me the opportunity to apply my programming skills. I'm ready to innovate, share my knowledge, and continue to learn.
