I'm a software engineer based out of Houston, Tx. I love everything about writing code (especially the bugs ). Currently, I'm looking for a position where I can continue to learn and grow as a developer.
Have an opportunity for me? I look forward to hearing from you!
About Me
I have a passion for utilizing logic to solve problems in creative, yet practical ways. I honed the skills necessary to effectively pursue this passion while studying philosophy at A&M. Since then, I've worked in the oilfield as a field engineer, and although actualizing in many ways, I needed a career with a work-life balance more conducive to happiness. Last year, I made the descision to transition careers to software engineering.
Today, I am now a proud graduate of General Assembly's Software Engineering Immersive Boot Camp. I am currently working part-time as an engineering technician at Vertice Oil Tools while I continue my search for a position in my new career. Currently, my main tools are JavaScript/TypeScript and React.
I love everything outdoors, but my biggest obsession currently is mountain biking. When I'm not coding or outside, I spend my freetime taxing my mental health with League of Legends.
