I've been an advocate for LGBTQ+ and specifically trans rights for over eight years, now. I've spoken at universities, churches, businesses, and on the radio about a variety of topics such as being LGBTQ+ in the workplace, respecting pronouns, understanding the basics of gender dysphoria, and non-binary identities. In 2018, I started an organization called Trans Minors Rights in order to advocate for the medical rights of transgender youth. I'm very well educated on topics surrounding transgender youth, gender dysphoria, and puberty blocker treatments.If you'd like me to speak at your event, feel free to reach out through LinkedIn or send me an email.If you're interested in hiring a motivated, fast-paced, organized non-profit employee, I'd love an opportunity to grow a non-profit organization full-time. I'm passionate about helping children and minority communities. I have leadership experience as well as technical experience in web design and development.

Associate Software Engineer IiPenske Truck Leasing Sep 2018 - PresentIn this position, I develop creative and innovative web applications to solve problems for our customers. The applications are mainly composed of Java (Sprint Boot), HTML, SCSS, and TypeScript (Angular Framework). However, I do occasionally have to update older applications using JavaScript/jQuery and CSS. I use IntelliJ as my IDE and sometimes Visual Studio for front-end development, but I am also comfortable with Eclipse. Many of our apps incorporate the Google Maps API and I headed a project where we translated an old JavaScript-based Google Maps application to Angular. In 2021, I lead a project communicating across design and development teams to improve our process for transferring of materials. I now head the initiative for solving customer problems in submitted bug reports which involves a lot of database work and writing complex SQL statements. I am also responsible for onboarding new associates. -
