My Journey
2020 — 2021
🍎 Started learning JavaScript
I began tinkering with JavaScript, building small projects to learn programming basics. What started with simple web scraping and scripting tasks quickly evolved into creating small web apps.
May 2022
🎓 Graduated from Hack Reactor
I completed a 13-week software engineering immersive program with over 1000+ hours of coding, specializing in JavaScript, React, and Node.js. I built several projects, including a full-stack e-commerce site.
At graduation, I was voted"Most Likely to Become JavaScript Famous", whatever that means...
July 2022 — January 2024
👨💻 Employed at Booz Allen Hamilton
At BAH, I contributed to a project for the Department of Veterans Affairs. I implemented new features, fixed bugs in the frontend, and led an overhaul to improve data fetching and performance.
I received a recognition award titled "The React Guru" for my work on the project.
