I build web apps, mobile apps, and the occasional addictive game. Turning curiosity and curly braces into shipped products since the Khan Academy days.

Skills & Tools

The weapons in my arsenal. Levels based on how much I've used them in the wild.

~/about-me.txt README

$ cat about-me.txt

First and foremost, I am a child of God. He is my Father in Heaven. His Son Jesus Christ, is my perfect older brother. I am not ashamed to be a part of His kingdom on earth, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

I am a child of some of the best parents, who taught me to work hard, help others, and do my best even when I don't want to do something.

By profession, I am a web developer who loves building things that are both useful and delightful. Started coding at 13 on Khan Academy, and the love never stopped.

I've built full-stack apps with Next.js + Supabase, e-commerce with Angular + Stripe, native-ish mobile apps with Capacitor + Ionic, a game with Godot, and even a Sudoku solver in Python that I built from the ground up.

I consistently learn new techniques, tech stacks, best practices, and JavaScript frameworks such as Angular and React. I keep my programming and algorithm design skills up with Project Euler: solving the different problems using Python, JavaScript, and if necessary C# for high-end multiprocessing for majorly complex problems.

Currently exploring AI-assisted development. Even though I do not like how much people are using AI, I do see that there are good things coming from it. So I am learning how to use AI to build and debug.

Fun facts:
    I once solved a 3x3 Rubik's cube in under 10 seconds.
    I graduated highschool, with an Associate Degree in Computer Science, soon after turning 17.
