About
Creative programmer, motivated, and lifelong learner.
After graduating from App Academy in March of 2022, I embarked on an exhilarating journey at Meta, where I spent a year as a Frontend Developer II before earning a well-deserved promotion to Software Engineer III in 2023. Throughout my time at Meta, I have been privileged to collaborate with diverse and talented teams while simultaneously handling multiple projects. My contributions span the entire development lifecycle, from initial planning and wireframing to delivering robust MVPs and implementing additional features. I take pride in presenting my work and onboarding teams seamlessly into the development process.
My passion for technology and innovation has led me to contribute to various open-source projects, including developing documentation websites for projects like 'aepsych.' Additionally, I have been instrumental in creating sophisticated metrics tools to assess hardware measurements, and I take pride in my role in developing a DevOps dashboard to enhance build health monitoring for continuous integration and pull request jobs, streamlining the debugging process.
My journey as a software engineer has been characterized by continuous learning and growth, and I relish exploring new technologies and techniques to enhance user experiences and achieve cutting-edge solutions. I am excited to continue my pursuit of excellence, driving impactful projects, and making a meaningful impact in the world of software engineering.
