a non-traditional Full-Stack Engineer with experience building
Front-End and Back-End applications.
Before I found myself in the tech sphere, I was pursuing a career path in music composition,
taking classes at the University of North Texas and the Berklee College of Music. After some
time, I decided to create a webpage to advertise my work, and it was then that I discovered a
passion for web development.
What was once a world of musical composition became a world of component composition, route and
API creation, database connection. The drive I had to create and share impactful music
transposed itself into a drive to build and deploy countless features for web applications,
mobile apps, and even games.
I joined Lambda School, a coding bootcamp for Web Development, Data Science, or iOS Development,
in 2019, where I spent a year and a half honing my skills in software engineering and computer
science. In addition to these skills, I have led several groups of students as a Team Lead for
various development projects, giving them insight on real-world processes and strategies.
See some things I've created as a developer.

MyDish: Your Recipe Editor
Avalable on
Test Flight
or
The Google Play Store.
My Dish is a mobile app to help users save recipes in a brand new way. When a user edits a
recipe that they've created, they can view previous edits that they've made to a recipe.
Maybe they thought adding extra sugar would make a cake taste better, but now they've
changed their mind. With MyDish, they can go back to a previous version they've written, and
cook from that recipe!
