About Me

Dedicated, ambitious, problem solver that utilizes critical thinking to create apps and websites from ideation to deployment.

I have always had a passion for creating meaningful experiences for people. That is what led me to become a chef at young age. I have spent the last 12 years working as a chef, and honing my skills to create unforgettable dining experiences.

However, as much as I enjoyed cooking, I felt a pull towards the world of web development and software development. I have always been fascinated by technology and the way it can transform our lives, and I wanted to be a part of that transformation. So, I decided to make a career change and pursue my passion for web development.

As a web Developer, I enjoy using my obsessive attention to details, my passion for making things, and my goal oriented work ethic to literally impact the world.

Projects

JavaScript Trivia Game

Screenshot of the deployed website

This deployed website is a trivia game all about JavaScript! Using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript I have created multiple functions to start the game, display each question one at a time, start a timer, check your answer, and create your score. Using local storage, at the end of the game you can save your score to a leader board.

Random Password Generator

This website uses HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to prompt a user for multiple selections to create them a random password. If the user enters not valid information then the JavaScript will force the user to try again.

Daily Work Planner
