About

As a design-focused software engineer striving for modularity and elegance throughout my work, I’m passionate about the intricacies of web applications: a cornerstone of my recent work at Meta and Cisco. Software development empowers me to visualize an application inside and out; I can combine art and code to create something both beautiful and functional! Having owned the frontend development of critical tools at Cisco (shipped to 3,000+ enterprise customers) and fullstack development of platform features to drive millions ($) in purchasing traffic at Meta, I specialize in forward-thinking engineering, transparent team collaboration, and rapid absorption of new concepts. My managers have noted my ability not just to ramp up quickly, but also to encourage camaraderie in our teams. Though colleagues have (lovingly) called me a ‘machine’ for my unshakable work ethic & focus, they also describe me as a funny, open-minded, and culture-defining peer. When I’m not coding or designing, I enjoy DJing / mixing music, powerlifting, drawing, having deep talks, and learning new material online. Looking for an artistic, autonomous, and ambitious software engineer? Please email me at: [email protected] Thank you very much for reading. I look forward to hearing from you! Skills gained through my studies and career: • Languages / Frameworks -- React JS, ES5 / ES6 JavaScript, TypeScript / Flow, Redux, HTML5, CSS3, Less / Sass, PHP / Hack, React Router, Web Components, Web Sockets, HTML5 Canvas • Servers / Databases -- NodeJS / Express, MySQL, GraphQL, Relay, Apollo, MongoDB, Cassandra, PostgreSQL, Jest, Mocha • Professional Skills -- Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), System Design, Product Sense, Cross-functional Collaboration, Project Management, Sprint Planning, Team Leadership, Project Leadership
