I am a Seattle based developer - currently focusing on JavaScript, Typescript and React.

my skills

JavaScript

This is the language I have the most experience with.

React

My favorite way of building user interfaces.

Next.js

The React framework I have used for all my major projects.

Express

Definitely my "go-to" library for building a Node server.

styled-components

I have used this for multiple projects and I love this library.

TailwindCSS

An amazing way of styling web pages. I have used this for several projects.

Django

My favorite Python package. I have built a few things with Django. This library is my first choice besides Express with Node.

PostgreSQL

Most of my SQL experience has been with using this database. I have found that it translates perfectly well to other SQL flavors such as MSQL or SQLite.

MongoDB

The first document based DB I have ever worked with. It is a great product from the MongoDB team and it is getting better all the time.

TypeScript

A great extension to the JavaScript language. I am learning more about this superset everyday.

Rust

My favorite low level language. I am loving the adoption of Rust on modern projects.
