I'm a software engineer in the Toronto area with broad experience in building applications cross-stack using React/JavaScript on the front-end and various back-end technologies like Ruby on Rails or Node/Express. I'm most interested in coding on both client and server side to create good clean code that is scalable, easily understood, and completely reusable: my passion is to build full-stack applications used as tools to help people with their day-to-day activities. As a child, you could always find me playing with Lego or Mechano the majority of my time at home, looking to build the next thing; with an engineer’s mindset from a young age, I’ve found great benefit incorporating technology in my life and strive to make that same difference with others.
I studied Kinesiology at University of Toronto near my home city where I learnt all about the human body and how it functions; I’m the kind of person who remains dedicated and strives to learn new things daily. Prior to my bootcamp, I began learning Ruby on Rails to better prepare myself for the strenuous 4 months to come in a very fast paced environment with little to no time to breathe. With that course under my belt, I exceeded all expectations for that section of the course and was able to get a firm grasp on Rails technology. I'm always keen to give 110% in everything I do as I’m a firm believer in anything less than 100% is being dishonest to oneself.
Frontend application built using Chakra and NextJs that allows users to access their Twilio account through Twilio API to send SMS messages to a comma (or non-comma) separated list of numbers. This was built in a day for a client as she needed to send text messages to her employees and choose which number to send from.
