SOFTWARE ENGINEER
ABOUT ME
Music and Technology have always held my attention. This drove me to pursue higher learning in Software Engineering at Coder Camps Seattle ASP.Net Core Full Stack boot camp. Since Coder Camps, I've worked with a SRE (DevOps) team at Microsoft, a feature team at Navia Benefits Solutions, and soon will be joining a feature team at Google!
One reason I find Software Engineering so appealing is my love for working in teams. While code is fascinating, I find organization and management of a task with a team equally enriching. Not to say that I don’t enjoy solo work, I just prefer to have a team as a helpful resource. Ideally, I’d like to become a Senior Software Engineer and lead a Dev team for a startup, or my own business in the future.
