About
With a diverse educational background and extensive experience in technology and music, I have built a robust career in software engineering and leadership. I hold a TechDegree in Front End Web Development from Treehouse, a Master of Education in Music from the University at Buffalo, and a Bachelor's in Music Education from SUNY Fredonia. My career began with roles in web development and photography, including a stint as a Trusted Photographer for Google. I later founded Be Local Now, enhancing local businesses' online presence. Transitioning into software engineering, I have held positions from Front End Software Engineer at EagleDream Technologies to Senior Software Engineer at MedChat and Rosie. At IdeaCrew, I advanced from Software Engineer to Lead Software Engineer, before joining Cisco as a Software Engineering Technical Leader. Here, I lead AI integration projects and have a patent application for UI generation processes. My journey reflects a blend of creativity and technical expertise.
