About me

While I was working in the health industry, I realized my contribution to public health and wellness felt limited. I wanted to have a more direct impact and realized that I can contribute on a larger scale by taking my hobby of coding and turn it into a full time career to create products that improve people's lives.

In 2018, I took the leap of switching careers.... I am currently a full stack engineer specializing in Javascript and the NERDS stack, and I'm always open to new technologies.
