Hello, I'm Michael. I'm a full-stack developer with over 15 years of experience. I enjoy working on React projects, designing new experiences, and delivering high quality end-user products.
About me
After working for several years in Cyber Security, I decided to pursue my passion for web / app programming. I started developing apps for SaaS projects while doing full-stack web development. I pivoted to Web3 (Blockchain) development for a few years to gain the experience. I am currently exploring new coding / app development possibilities – including small apps for production. I've also been contributing Open Source apps into my GitHub for general consumption. While versatile, my preferred stack is MongoDB, Express, React, and Node.js (MERN). I am also familiar with TypeScript and Cypress testing for projects. I am currently looking for a full-time position as a web application / full-stack developer.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy playing with my son, taking trips with my family, watching movies, and playing games. I also enjoy learning new things. I am currently studying Cloud Computing for a Bachelor's Degree. I'm also learning Spanish and German.
