CA → NY
From the Bay Area originally (MV). Now running around Brooklyn and New York.
Software Engineer
Nontraditional, switched into the field wanting to bring ideas to life and improve existing platforms. Always up skilling through continuous learning + building as well as now currently pursuing a Masters Degree in CS.
To date have mainly focused on React, React Native, Node, TypeScript, Python and Go while working for companies of all sizes. Startups getting traction (product changing by the minute) to enterprise (Largest Healthcare company in US).
Like anything else, there are tradeoffs, I enjoy the smaller company experience where the team can place many quick bets and put new technologies to work in a single sprint, but also do enjoy the enterprise work with millions of active monthly users, being effective across teams/services and managing volume/scaling efficiently is paramount.
Mentoring
3+ years running, I have hosted weekly session with my free global community of software engineers. Helping folks with the first step day 1 of starting their journey and on through to midlevel engineers stuck on specific problems.
