About Me

I am a Web Developer living in San Francisco and I enjoy building elegant and useful things with code.

Since I was a child, I've loved solving puzzles. I would spend hours working on sudoku puzzles and figuring out plexars in the daily newspaper. When I finally got my feet wet in programming during an internship in college, I got addicted. Figuring out how to write your code to do a specific task was very much like solving a puzzle.

This led me to attend an intense, twelve-week immersive software development program called App Academy. During my time at App Academy, I learned how to build a full-stack application from the ground up using technologies such as Rails and Backbone.js.

I'm currently looking for a place to continue to develop and grow as a Web Developer. Feel free to check out the rest of my portfolio!
