About
I am a Master's student in Applied Computer Science at Dalhousie University, driven by a passion for crafting innovative web solutions that bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and user-centric design. With a focus on Frontend development and a comprehensive full-stack skill set, I transform complex challenges into elegant, efficient applications.
My core tech skills are:
Frontend Development: React.js, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, Bootstrap
Backend Development: Node.js, Express.js, Spring Boot
Cloud & DevOps: AWS, GCP, Docker, Kubernetes, CloudFormation
Database Management: MySQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB, PostgreSQL
Version Control & Tools: Git, VS Code, Agile methodologies
Key projects that showcase my abilities:
Bookify: Developed a cloud-native e-book platform using AWS services, improving uptime by 15% and automating 90% of deployment processes.
DalVacationHome: Contributed to a serverless application integrating AWS and GCP, reducing operational costs by 40% and enhancing security with AWS Cognito.
EcoPick: Created a platform connecting farmers and consumers, featuring Stripe integration and automated reminders that reduced missed deliveries by 35%.
StayEase: Developed a comprehensive vacation rental solution, streamlining the entire booking lifecycle with React.js and Java Spring Boot.
My journey in tech extends beyond academia, with valuable internships at Pistalix Solutions that honed my Python skills and professional acumen. I thrive in collaborative environments, valuing clear communication and teamwork while constantly exploring new technologies and industry trends.
As I progress in my career, I'm seeking internship opportunities in Software Engineering, Full-stack Development, or DevOps roles where I can leverage my skills in:
Frontend Development: Creating intuitive, responsive user interfaces
Cloud Architecture: Building scalable and resilient systems
Agile Methodologies: Embracing iterative development and continuous improvement
Problem-Solving: Applying data structures and algorithms expertise
When not immersed in code, I'm exploring the latest tech trends or conceptualizing innovative app ideas. I'm excited about the opportunity to contribute meaningful code that not only functions flawlessly but also enhances user experiences and drives business success.
Let's connect and explore how we can innovate together in this dynamic world of technology!
