Full Stack Developer

09/2019 - 04/2021

Throughout my time as a newbie at seventyseven, I was able to quickly adapt to the fast-paced environment and contribute to projects in a meaningful way.

Many varieties of projects were thrown my way, from small marketing sites to large-scale ecommerce solutions.

Much of my time was spent researching cloud architecture and best practices, which I was able to apply to my projects. I quickly became the subject matter expert on Firebase/GCP as well as a reliable resource for the rest of the developers on my team.

Junior Developer

03/2019 - 09/2019

I was quickly recognized as a valuable asset to the team, even with zero professional experience in the field.

Immediately I was trusted to design a CMS system for a client in Node.js and React with PostgreSQL, which my bootcamp experience had so excellently prepared me for.
