Skills

What I use to build and ship.

  • JavaScript & TypeScript

    Typed, readable code for the browser and Node.js — the foundation of everything I ship.

  • Angular & Component Architecture

    Reusable components, services and routing that keep an app easy to grow — the way I built Oxalate.

  • Python

    Scripts and data work, plus AI agent projects from my CodePath coursework.

  • Firebase

    Authentication, saved user profiles and data for a live app with real users.

  • Testing & CI/CD

    Automated tests, code reviews and Jenkins pipelines — practices that cut post-release bugs by 15% at Wells Fargo.
