I am a Founder & Web3 Software Engineer at BlockMotive, a full service software development agency where we combine innovative ideas with cutting-edge technology to create impactful solutions for our clients.
I was a Software Engineer working on guest experience technologies for Disney Parks & Resorts. I cultivated a wide range of skillsets by working on multiple projects that impact our cast and guests daily. Most notably, I’ve gained experience in full-stack development using technologies like Kotlin, Java, Spring Boot, Node.js, Angular, TypeScript, JavaScript, Swift, databases, and much more. Moreover, I’ve had the pleasure to work with CPP’s computer science club, where I’m a former President, on Disney recruiting events.
My journey at Disney began as a summer intern, but I was brought back for part-time work as an Associate Software Engineer while I was finishing my last semester at CPP. Upon my graduation, I became a full-time Software Engineer. My experience at Disney was absolutely incredible!
USTOSHOP.com is an e-commerce, logistics, and blockchain startup where I was a blockchain and full-stack developer. I began as a full-time summer intern, but became a part-time employee once I resumed school.
My development skills grew immensely during my time with USTOSHOP.com as I was working in a fast-paced environment where I took on many development responsibilties. As one of the core developers in the blockchain team, I was most involved in building our ToopToken cryptocurrency exchange platform (web, mobile, web3) from the ground up. Furthermore, I worked on our single sign on system, payments system, and e-commerce platform. Continuing, I was soley responsible for developing an internal platform for sending bulk SMS and email messages to our customers, which I exposed as an internal API for our developers. Moreover, I was responsible for developing our company’s forum with Discourse and integrating into our SSO system. Technologies I became accustomed to during this time included Node.js, Express.js, HTML, CSS, AngularJS, Solidity, and more.
Fun fact: I was one of the only English speaking employees and I required translation during meetings. Google Translate was a godsend during this time!
I was a full-stack developer intern at FluffAR, which was an augmented reality (AR) application that allowed users to collect cryptocurrency. During my time here, I Implemented AR in Unity3d, wrote code on the NEM blockchain, and used AR.js to implement AR on web. FluffAR later became Captive App, which can be found here.
My first internship was working as a full-stack web developer intern for Henry Tax, a platform that connects people with accountants to complete their taxes quickly and easily. During my time here, I gained experience in front-end web development, back-end web development, and database management. I utilized the MeteorJS framework with JavaScript, MongoDB as our database, and the agile Scrum methodology for project management. After the initial summer internship, I was kept on the team working part-time.
