I caught fire coding. I always thought my dream was to be a proofreader for a little indie publishing company, sipping my cafe indies chai and reading the opening lines to the next best-selling vampire novel. It seemed like an appropriate dream given my Bachelors's in engineering. But I kind of just felt meh, I yearned to learn more yearned to learn something different. And that's when it happened; the spark I was missing ignited the instant I clicked play on my first Python tutorial video. (I mean seriously, how could it not be great when it's named after Dr. Chuck's Python specialization?) Since then, I can't get enough. Front-end web development calls to all my passions; it incorporates creativity and problem-solving and I'm allowed to break it to improve the code (in a separate Git branch, of course). I love applying responsive design principles and watching my web pages shrink into mobile screens and still look amazing. It's oddly satisfying. I think in a way I'm kind of like those web pages; I'm moldable, but I still keep my creative flare intact. My specialties include quickly learning new skills and programming languages, problem-solving, domain-driven design, responsive design principles, website optimization, and various methods of optimizing code. So far I have Python, Django, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SQL or Pl/SQL, Oracle, Angular, Git/GitHub, Jira, AWS, and much more. I've been experiencing React, Node.JS, Next.JS, Express.JS, MongoDB, and Salesforce. I'm enthusiastically grabbing onto any other programming languages, frameworks, or principles I can integrate into the coding web in my head. #SoftwareEngineer #Python #Django #ReactJS #AWS #PLSQL #ProblemSolver #Innovator #OpenToOpportunities
