About Me

Focused on the details, driven by the big picture, fueled by coffee.

My interest in programming and software development began around the age of eleven, sparked by a fascination with video games and a desire to understand their creation. I initially experimented with graphing calculators, developing simple applications to assist with my schoolwork, but also created simple games. From recreating classic games like Snake and Space Invaders to designing poker and RPG games, I quickly encountered the limitations of this platform. By high school, I sought more advanced opportunities and enrolled in a comprehensive programming curriculum that included C++, Java, and Python. This foundational knowledge opened the door to a broader spectrum of development technologies. I expanded my skills to include PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, MySQL, Objective-C, and Swift, among others. This journey ultimately guided me to a career as a full-stack developer, where my passion for programming continues to drive my work.

Career

With well over a decade of experience in professional software development, I have had the opportunity to work on diverse projects across multiple platforms, including mobile, desktop, and web. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience in both frontend and backend development, integrating various technologies to deliver seamless user experiences. This broad experience has given me a deep understanding of the entire development process, from initial concept to final deployment.

Personal

In my personal projects, I enjoy creating small simulations and experimenting with various physics concepts. I also enjoy developing games and tools that enhance my gaming experience or simplify everyday tasks. These projects allow me to explore new technologies and challenge my creativity and problem-solving outside of my professional work.
