I believe in progress over perfection. I build things, learn from them, and make them better. As a developer and teacher, I value curiosity, patience, and the small steps that lead to growth.
Designing and building scalable APIs and backend systems with a focus on clean architecture, clear separation of concerns, and long-term maintainability. I structure service layers, data models, and business logic so they stay easy to extend as products grow.
Crafting responsive, production-ready interfaces with Vue/Nuxt.js and React/Next.js, backed by SCSS and modern CSS tooling.
Designing and optimizing relational and NoSQL data layers with MySQL, MariaDB, Firebase, and MongoDB. Comfortable with Linux servers and deployment pipelines.
Part-time IT Instructor at Cordova Public College — guiding students through web development fundamentals, project-based curricula, and career growth in tech.
Integrating AI tools and APIs into real-world applications — from LLM-powered features and prompt engineering to automating workflows and using AI copilots to ship faster.
From front-end polish to resilient backend services, these are the tools I reach for — grouped by where they live in the stack.
