About Me

Before diving into the depths of web development, I worked as an economic litigation consultant ready to make a career change. Translation: I transformed messy data into an argument through analyses and regressions. Along the way, I had glimpses of powerful tools just out of my reach: data scraping, API's, and machine learning. I envied the ability to create. After three and a half years, I decided I was ready to make a change.
Beyond an enhancement of my data experience, I wanted to understand the tools I took for granted, from Data to Design. My passion is bringing good design to life, but my background in data grounds my focus in the application's functions and possibilities. My applications are built with JavaScript, using Node.js or React framework for more complex projects. Reach out if you'd like to discuss my most recent projects and professional expereince!
