Full stack developer with a passion for problem-solving that meets user needs and strong user empathy. Over 14 years of proven experience in real estate appraising, transitioning to software development in Ruby and JavaScript programming languages. I bring strong data analytical skills, especially working with numbers, and excellent writing skills, an asset in writing good code. I am a highly-disciplined, motivated self-starter and offer proven, reliable excellence in project and time management that produce client-driven results. As a lifelong learner, I thrive in a dynamic environment where there are continual opportunities to learn and be challenged.
I recently completed an online full-stack software developer boot camp (800 hours), which taught Ruby and JavaScript programming languages. In the boot camp, I learned various technologies (HTML & CSS, OOP, SQL, ORM, AJAX, JSON, JQuery, Fetch API), and completed 5 projects involving web frameworks (Sinatra, Ruby on Rails, React, Redux).
I enjoy working with numbers and data, and solving puzzles, which software development consists of. I am always looking for a challenge, and software dev is a continual challenge. I am also a life-long learner, and there is always something new to learn in programming since technology is constantly changing.
