Hello, my name is

View My Work

My specialty

is Full Stack Web Development (preferably Angular, Vue, or React with a C#/Entity Framework Core backend) but I am always open to new tech stacks! I have worked professionally with Angular, React, and Vue extensively and feel extremely comfortable with both the fine grained skills of all the frameworks and making high level architectural decisions. I also pride myself in making sure all my work is fully accessibly (following modern WCAG guidelines).

Although professionally I am a Web Developer, my personal projects are all Mobile Development, which is what I enjoy as a hobby. I cannot show my professional projects as they are all protected by NDAs. Please see my resume for more information on my professional work.

Idioma Flash app icon

Idioma Flash

One of my hobbies is learning Spanish. I wanted an app that allowed me to simply translate a word I do not know, then add it to a flash card deck. I looked on the Play Store but could not find anything that was intuitive and easy to use. So I decided to make my own. I use this app every day.
