Innovative developer focused on creating real world web applications and AI-powered solutions.

Work History

My career journey has been unconventional and varied, and I believe that's my strength. As a Cryptologic Linguist , I saved the Department of Defense over $1 million in training costs through my exceptional performance and innovations. Later, as a Web Developer in an international environment, I successfully collaborated in a team where I was one of only two native English speakers among non-native English-speaking colleagues, demonstrating strong cross-cultural communication skills. My experience extends across various sectors, including directly engaging with people as a customer service representative, procuring translated intelligence materials in defense, and the resilience gained from roles in manufacturing.

This diverse background has taught me the importance of clear communication, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to adapt quickly to new challenges. Whether I was implementing cost-saving measures in military operations, developing culturally-aware web solutions for international teams, or ensuring customer satisfaction, I've always approached my work with dedication, a commitment to excellence, and a determination to solve problems efficiently and effectively.

My inherent curiosity and a passion for continuous learning is evident in my explorations of everything from cutting-edge AI to mastering new coding techniques and even delving into the nuances of language. These factors drive me to constantly seek growth and innovation in any role I undertake. I'm excited to bring this multifaceted experience and enthusiastic approach to new opportunities.
