A bit about me

Introduction

I'm a recent graduate from the University of Houston—go Coogs! I have a strong passion for all things front-end development and aspire to build a long-term career in this field. Beyond the technical things, I enjoy working out, cooking, and reading. I just started reading "The Design of Everyday Things!"

Right now, I am diving deep into some research on UI/UX design for AI tools. I want to understand how to create a more transparent and human-centered experience that makes AI interactions more accessible.

AuthJS

Developed the marketing page for gymskii, a fitness-tracking platform designed to help users achieve progressive overload by tracking and visualizing gym performance data. gymskii allows users to log their weekly gym data and track their progress through a central dashboard, which includes dynamic graphics and statistics to help users train more effectively and stay motivated. The current site allows you to log in/sign out using Auth.js.

Currently working on: Creating the dashboard for users to track and visualize their data (learning Recharts).

Sandpack

Developed scratchToReact to help friends interested in web development, making it a valuable project for honing my skills in vanilla JavaScript and React components. The current site shows tutorials on basic web components in vanilla HTML, CSS, and JS. I try to add a lesson a day to continue learning and helping others. The site’s code previews are made using Sandpack, providing an interactive learning experience. I plan to expand from web components into all types of tutorials for web development.

Currently working on: Creating the React tutorials for current vanilla components.
