I am currently training to be a Software Engineer at Fullstack Academy where I am learning full stack JavaScript. Before this, I was a touring professional in the music industry where I worked closely with artists such as Cyndi Lauper, Toni Braxton and The All-American Rejects. Six years into that career, towards the end of 2015, I wanted to challenge myself in different ways than touring could provide. At about that time I rekindled my interest in coding that I’ve had since middle school. I spent 2016 touring and experimenting with code until I fell in love with the logical problem solving challenges that are so integral to software development. I decided to dive into this career October 2016, moved from California/Texas to NYC to attend a coding bootcamp prep course in November. I have been laser focused on coding ever since. I have skills in the full stack, but I specialize in back-end technologies such as Express, Sequelize and PostgreSQL. I am interested in health, education and finance and more generally am looking for an opportunity in human optimization. I want to work with a company that helps people maximize the impact they can make with their time. Perhaps a company like Omnifocus, Soylent, Headspace or Betterment.
