Software development is life (for all of you Ted Lasso fans out there). I have over 10+ years of professional, full-stack software development experience in the finance industry. I've built software ranging from wealth management platforms to real-time analytics systems.
I've always been a teacher and mentor at heart. I spent over 2 years prior to my professional career teaching and mentoring Engineering students learning to code. Throughout my professional career, the best part of my job has always been pulling a chair up to a colleague's desk and solving a problem together. The most rewarding outcome is seeing a mentee, student or colleague’s eyes light up when a concept finally “clicks” and they are empowered to solve the problem-at-hand.
