Full Stack Developer Passionate About Building Useful Things
Dedicated developer with expertise in both backend and frontend development, committed to creating solutions that make a difference.
Who I Am
I'm a dedicated Full Stack Developer with a strong foundation in both backend and frontend development. Currently working at Innosoft, I've been instrumental in strengthening core products and developing innovative solutions.
I love building things that are genuinely useful. I believe in creating solutions that solve real problems - like my current project idea for an AI-powered video analyzer that can process any type of video (audio or visual) and provide summaries of the content.
To bring ideas like this to life, I embrace challenges as opportunities to grow and strengthen my skills. When I transitioned to a team working with AWS services like S3, DynamoDB, and EventBridge, I quickly ramped up, expanded my skills, and applied them to deliver results. Staying curious and adaptable is what allows me to keep building solutions that matter.
My Approach
I'm a strong believer in collaborative development and sharing knowledge. I'm always happy to help teammates, whether that's looking at issues together and pair-program or providing resources and guides I've written or found online.
Known for my postive energy and approachable style, I take pride in mentoring others, sharing insights and fostering team growth.
My work at Innosoft focuses on recreation management applications that help people better themselves, which brings me joy knowing my work is making a positive impact on others' lives.
