ABOUT ME

Senior Software Engineer for over 10 years

I've been programming since the age of 10 and professionally since the age of 18. I taught website development with HTML in Elementary, attended a business and technology magnet in High School with a focus on databases, and joined the professional world right after. Where I have been immersed in multiple technologies and had the pleasure to mentor and learn from many developers. Helped host the 2012 Global Code Retreat in NYC (http://coderetreat.org/events/global-day-of-coderetreat-2012-new-york-city).

I've programmed in multiple languages from C, PHP, Python, Ruby, Scala, Objective-C, and Java. I am currently focused on improving my knowledge of Ruby, Objective-C, Swift, and Scala,. I have a huge focus on application design, performance, and scalability.

I have knowledge of many business domains from working on client applications and websites for multiple years. I have picked up Social Media Marketing, Management, UX, and more along the way.
I am constantly looking to improve, learn, and teach.

Specialties: Ruby, Rails, Sinatra, Swift, Objective-C, iOS, Scala, jQuery, CoffeeScript, Linux, MySQL, postgres, git, Domain Modeling, UX, and Social Media Marketing.

I use to teach an HTML/CSS class in middle school if that gives an idea of how long I've been doing it. Without HTML/CSS you wouldn't have a website someone could even interact with.

SQL

15 years experience | 1 endorsement

I learned SQL in High School and have been doing it since. There's no way to avoid it if you wish to use most major databases these days.

Git

10 years experience | 1 endorsement

I've used git as soon as I became a professional developer. It has saved me countless times and I wouldn't know how to build without it.
