I am an Information Systems graduate from Stony Brook University who initially ventured into teaching. While teaching was a rewarding experience, I have always held a deep-rooted passion for coding. A pivotal moment came when I helped a student debug code in their introductory computer science class, reminding me of the joy and satisfaction that programming brings. As I transitioned back to tech, I dedicated myself to learning through online platforms like The Odin Project and Coursera's IBM Full Stack Software Developer Course, mastering technologies such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React. This journey led me to create full-stack applications like Gym Social, a social media and workout tracking platform, and Yelp Trail, a trails review application.

As technology continues to evolve, I’m eager to keep learning, expanding my skill set, and transforming ideas into reality through code. When I'm not coding, I enjoy weightlifting, Pilates, and hiking. These activities help me recharge and refocus, allowing me to take on more challenges in my work. Feel free to check out my projects, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or simply want to chat!
