About Me

As a skilled software developer with a strong foundation in both front-end and back-end technologies, I bring over 10 years of experience in high-pressure healthcare environments, including as a flight paramedic. This background has honed my problem-solving abilities, adaptability, and attention to detail—qualities I now apply to software development.

Over the past few years, I’ve expanded my technical expertise by working with Next.js, React.js, Python, SQL, Node.js/Express.js, Socket.io, Typescript, Tailwind, Web Security and Agile methodologies. My projects have allowed me to build web applications from the ground up, implement asynchronous API actions, and work with databases, numerous libraries, and frameworks. I’ve developed a deep understanding of user-centric design, accessibility, and best practices for creating robust, scalable, and efficient solutions.

I am passionate about using my skills to solve complex problems and drive innovation in the tech industry, particularly in areas like healthcare technology, IT and Health Informatics. As a continuous learner, I am always exploring new technologies and striving to enhance my craft.

Medical Portfolio

I created this portfolio by request from a medical professional who was job hunting. This project allowed me to try some new styles and further work on my SCSS and mobile responsive skills. I learned about new ways to style using SCSS and further learned about layout and controlling space / empty space on websites.

WeatherPage

This weather project was an API and DOM manipulation heavy website that required a lot of async calls. I also learned a lot about mobile responsiveness and styling with traditional CSS. I was able to implement a metric-to-imperial conversion system, read and utilize time systems as well as utilize JSON for information as needed.

• Javascript • REST API • Async

Enchanted Mountain

The Enchanted Mountain Brewing company site is a project I initiated to utilize some new SASS skills. The site is a take on a private company business style website utilizing a common modern design style and styling. Working on this project I was able to try my hand at multiple common site features such as pop-up windows and scroll-to.
