My Philosophy

If you put in the time and the work; you will learn, you will grow, you will develop.

Of course we want it done right, but first we must make a begining. Start where you are, with what you have. Everything can be improved. From a begining we can grow, expand and build up to bigger and better.

Teamwork is everything. Surround yourself with people that know more than you and have the experience and skills you want. Do what they do. Always bring your A game.

“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” -African Proverb


If you want to go fast AND far, I recommend sailing aboard 12 meter US17 Weatherly.

My Path

I have always enjoyed tinkering, building and puzzles. I have also always been fascinated with technology.

I started my journey as a developer with General Assembly, Web Development Immersive. I jumped in with both feet, learning the fundamentals of HTML, CSS and Javascript. We then got into Ruby and Ruby On Rails building individual projects, after Ruby it was MEAN stack, first AngularJS then ReactJS and working collaboratively on a team project. GA Profile

I then landed a summer intenship with Kenzan in Pawtucket, RI as a front end developer. There I was part of an AGILE team working with ReactJS and learning test driven development.

Now I am a student with CareerDevs, a Computer Science Academy based in Providence, RI. Learning and building my skills and diving deep into Data Structures, Algorithms, DesignPatterns, AGILE Development, and learning the programming languages of C and C#.
