Hello! I'm a software engineer with full stack web
development experience based in northern California. I
have built multiple full stack projects, both solo and
as a team member. The artistic side of me has always
been interested in UI/UX and graphic design, so frontend
development is especially enjoyable, but I like working
across the stack - the backend definitely has its
merits! Most importantly, I love to improve; wherever I
am in my programming journey, there's always something
to learn, and always a desire to create things I can be
proud of.
I'm also a music composer and performer! My primary
instrument is guitar, but I also can play keys and love
exploring experimental sound design with synthesizers
and effects pedals. One of my biggest passions is
composing orchestral scores for visual media such as
film, television, and video games, and it's my goal to
one day write and publish a full soundtrack.
I completed an Associate of Arts Degree in Music at
Butte College with no prior experience reading or
writing music, and have since composed full orchestral
scores for live performance, as well as performing as a
guitarist for multiple ensembles. Afterwards, I enrolled
in and graduated from App Academy's full-time 24-week
software engineering bootcamp to pivot and kickstart my
career. My learning didn't stop there, though - I'm
always hungry for more knowledge and strongly desire to
improve my skillset now and far into the future.
