About Me

As an ambitious developer with a passion for frontend Javascript & React work, I revel in blending my strong interpersonal skills with my enthusiasm for breaking through roadblocks. My determined nature has allowed me to explore possibilities in the professional worlds of both tech and finance, with prior experience as an equity sales trader. I strive to learn from my peers and to constantly challenge myself.

My education in full-stack development ensures I can adapt to a variety of learning environments. Drawing upon my experiences in comfortably handling high-pressure situations, I enjoy attacking problems with a clear vision in a collaborative environment.
