Resume

As a Full Stack Developer at Print and Mail Services at BYU, I've cultivated skills in both front-end and back-end technologies to ensure a smooth user experience and the functionality of crucial day-to-day operations. I work one-on-one with internal clients to identify pain points and craft custom technology solutions. I am confident that my hands-on expertise, combined with my strong interpersonal skills, positions me as a valuable asset to any organization.

During my BYU On-Campus Internship with Betterment Labs, I led a team of five to outline the functionality of an educational app in its developmental stages. More recently, I have developed fully functioning website prototypes for organizations such as the National Kidney Foundation and BYU's Ancient Studies Department. My skill set includes database design, cybersecurity, enterprise infrastructure, and I am comfortable with Python, ASP.NET, C#, SQL, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and the Microsoft suite, including Excel. My main value, however, comes from my ability to learn new technologies in ambiguous situations to combat whatever technology problems come my way.
