Fueled by curiosity, determination, and exceptional relational skills, I am embarking on a new journey in software development, leaving behind a diverse workforce background. Throughout my varied experiences, I have honed valuable qualities that will undoubtedly serve me well in software development. From customer service, I've learned the art of empathy and relationship-building, which will contribute to effective collaboration and teamwork in coding projects. My time in the restaurant industry has equipped me with adaptability and problem-solving skills, vital attributes for navigating the challenges of software development. Additionally, my extensive tenure at Amazon has honed my attention to detail and understanding of streamlined processes, providing a solid foundation for building efficient and user-friendly applications. Traditional sort centers come with a unique set of challenges - my time at PHL7 fortified my innate skills, but it also helped me to overcome some of my shortcomings. I'm a better leader, a more collaborative teammate, a more proactive and assertive person. I took "disagree and commit" to heart, with the understanding that it doesn't mean one must always be contrary. Rather, one should offer an alternative view and stand behind it, in an effort to facilitate progress.When I'm not being verbose I like to dive into the pages of a high fantasy novel or get lost in an open world video game. My mind is always brimming with questions, and I love to converse with anyone over just about anything. I'm just as happy to listen. I'm eager to build on my past successes, as well as my adverse experiences, to drive a better future for myself and for those around me. If I've piqued your interest, I highly encourage you to reach out! I am actively seeking captivating and innovative opportunities in software development, aiming to align myself with an organization that shares my passion for addressing challenges faced by everyday individuals.
