I started learning to program as a hobby while in my third year of college, and I completed codecademy's 30-hour intro to JS course, as well as their intro to HTML and CSS courses. It was then I decided that I REALLY like programming, and I wanted to go all in on Web Development. I immediately applied as a Full-Time student to Lambda School's Full-Stack Web Developer and Computer Science program, and was accepted a couple of weeks later. Lambda School is one of the most difficult things I've ever done, but it was totally worth it.
Update 2026: The Gauntlet now takes the cake for that one, EASILY.
October 2024 - December 2024 (3 months)
Getting into Gauntlet was no joke. The requirements were intense: pass a LeetCode challenge, have at least three years of professional experience, clear a behavioral interview, and score 40+ out of 50 on the CCAT (Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test). I was definitely rusty, and wasn't able to pass until I studied for 2 weeks straight!
The program itself was three weeks remote followed by seven weeks in Austin, Texas—they flew me out and covered everything. It was all about building real products with modern AI tools: Cursor, Claude, OpenAI APIs, OpenRouter APIs,
Replicate APIs, RAG systems, and agentic workflows. Several of the projects you see in my portfolio came from participating in The Gauntlet. It sharpened my product sense, gave me tons of experience green-fielding applications in fast iteration cycles, and showed me what developers are REALLY capable of using the full power of AI (if you've only dabbled on the side with Cursor or Claude Code, you have no idea!)
October 2019 - November 2024 (5 years)
I have 5 years of professional experience as a Front-End Software Engineer using Angular at Lukka. My tenure began in October 2019 as a junior. I worked my way up to L2 in a little over a year, and L3 shortly after that. Working in a fast-paced startup environment was the most learning I have ever done in a short amount of time, especially with the launch of their first two software solutions built in-house.
Besides programming, I have a couple of hobbies that I do in my free time. I'm a bit of a PC enthusiast, and I play my fair share of video games as well. I also have four years of choir experience. I haven't been in one for a long time, but I still practice pretty often.
