I consider myself a builder in every sense of the word. Whether it’s building physical spaces, a sense of community, relationships, or software, I find great joy in working with my hands, my mind, and people. As my past experiences demonstrate, I have gained knowledge and skills in working successfully within and across diverse environments and populations. I bring a strong background in working collaboratively with teams and leading teams in an open minded, creative and solution-oriented way.

Concerning web development I have more than 5 years of experience as a professional full-stack software developer. My experiences include Object Oriented programing with Ruby/Rails, JavaScript, and Postgres databases. I have helped build, design, and maintain various web architectures, from the Rails monolith to single page React apps. I have helped in migrating legacy applications to React, designing and implementing a solution for building complex forms quickly through configuration driver React components, building Rails and GraphQL APIs,  third party API integrations, application upgrades, and mentoring and training team members. All in all, I am a dedicated, passionate software developer/learner that is eager to solve problems and build better.
