Born and raised in the Bronx, New York, I grew up in an environment that wasn’t always conducive to success. I left high school early and faced challenges with the law at a young age. However, I was fortunate to land a job in drain cleaning, where I developed strong skills in plumbing and drain cleaning services. Driven by a desire to improve my situation, I started my own business, DrainersPro. Navigating entrepreneurship was challenging, but I embraced the learning curve and focused on continuous improvement.My passion for growth led me to pursue software engineering, where I could apply technology to expand my business. I enrolled in an intensive Google-funded software engineering fellowship program Pursuit.org with a 9% acceptance rate, preparing me with both technical and professional skills. The program helped me gain hands-on experience with Node, Express, React/Redux, PostgresSQL, APIs, Git, and more. Graduates from this fellowship have been hired by companies like Pinterest, JP Morgan, and Spotify.I’m a full stack developer with deep knowledge in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js, and experience with CAD design using AutoDesk Fusion 360 and electronic prototyping with Arduino at Duro UAS. My passion spans software development, robotics, AI, research, blockchain, cryptocurrency, and problem-solving. I thrive on challenging projects, whether working individually or as part of a team, and have experience with pair programming, code reviews, and building tech solutions.Education for me goes beyond formal schooling—it's about the relentless pursuit of new skills and applying them to grow personally and professionally. I believe in learning, mastering new disciplines, and passing that knowledge forward. Through perseverance, I’ve not only built a successful business but a diverse skill set that empowers me to tackle any challenge that comes my way.
