I am versatile.
From back-end to front-end, to operations.
My interest in Linux is initially what sparked my interest in development. I taught myself how to set up a Linux server when I was just 13 years old. Within a year, I was able to navigate the entire operating system with no problems. I spent many hours learning, compiling software, and configuring system services. Eventually, I needed to write my own scripts for automation and I learned BASH. Since then, I have learned Python for more advanced system scripts. I have even built my own Linux distributions using the Linux From Scratch book.
While I continued to learn operating systems, I wrote some HTML and read my first programming book, HTML4 for Dummies. Just a few months after that, I developed my first website using PHP and MySQL. Now, I'm an expert in React.js and modern JavaScript development. Throughout my career I have written small applications, as well as contributed to enterprise applications. In my free time, I actively develop GrubStack, a software suite I built for food-ordering payments and checkout — a Python/Flask API, a dashboard in vanilla React, and a Next.js ordering app.
The things I enjoy the most.
I have spent many years learning as much as I can. Sometimes, it is easy to get lost in all the different technologies. With that said, these are a few roles I really enjoy.
UI/UX Development
I am an expert at UI design and UX development. I produce modern, clean applications, while creating an intuitive and easy to browse experience.
Front-End JavaScript Development
I enjoy creating front-end applications using React.js and other popular frameworks.
Systems & DevOps
I still enjoy the systems side just as much — configuring Linux servers, writing automation scripts, and building CI/CD pipelines that keep a team shipping without drama.
