Welcome to my portfolio website!

I am a backend developer with expertise in Java and Python, committed to creating efficient, maintainable systems. My work is centered around building high-quality REST APIs and ensuring that backend services perform reliably under any conditions. I graduated with a BS in Computer Science from Johnson & Wales University, where I specialized in Software Engineering. This site features various projects, offering a glimpse into my work and my approach to solving complex problems.

Event Finder

Developed a mobile application that allows users to discover, share, and RSVP to local events based on their interests. The app supports account creation, event posting, real-time attendance tracking, and interaction with other users. This project was primarily a backend demonstration with limited frontend design, focusing on real-time data handling and user management. Tech Stack Android Studio Kotlin Firebase Realtime Database

Recipe Finder

Recipe Finder is a backend-focused web application built entirely with PHP and MySQL, designed to demonstrate core server-side functionality and database integration. It includes user authentication with account registration, login, password change, and account recovery via email verification codes. Users can create, edit, and manage their own recipes, as well as browse and view recipes shared by others. The app also features a favorites system that lets users save and access a personalized list of recipes. The front end is intentionally minimal, serving as a simple interface to highlight the underlying backend logic and functionality without the use of frameworks.
