About

The day I wrote my first “Hello World!” program, I knew I wanted to build software. When I joined Frazier & Bowles, the firm didn't have a website or an internal software platform. The very first project when I joined the firm was building the website. Not long after that, I was asked to build an internal portal system for communication and reporting for employees. The project eventually grew into the internal system the firm uses today to manage day to day cases, collections, client communication, reporting, and operations. That's the kind of work I enjoy most, building software that solves real business problems.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a fully remote Full-Stack, Software Developer, or AI/Automation opportunity where I can apply my experience with PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, APIs, and Python while expanding my work with React, TypeScript, Node.js, Azure, and AI development. I enjoy building practical solutions, improving existing applications, and automating workflows. I’m open to full-time, contract, or contract-to-hire roles. U.S. citizen; no sponsorship required.
