About Me

I'm a full-stack developer living in Los Angeles, CA.

I like working with data, building APIs, and designing interfaces.

Background


I'm a full-stack developer living in Los Angeles, CA. I work at Command Credit — a business credit reseller based in Rhinebeck, NY — where I manage the company's API and self-service web app.

I enjoy being a generalist — working with data, building APIs, and designing interfaces — managing the full software and data life-cycle at a company.

I've studied and worked in a variety of fields, including medicine (I was an EMT during high school and college), film/animation (I worked at a small commercial animation studio for a few years), data science (I graduated from a 3-month intensive data science bootcamp after graduating from college), and software development (I've been working a full-stack developer for the past two years).

You'll see that the date ranges for my work experience and education interwtine a bit — as I've moved back and forth between fields — finding my passion for data and software engineering and building my skillset.

Currently, I'm learning more about data engineering and data science, and I'm interested in working with data at a larger scale.
