ABOUT ME
Full Stack Developer and Remote Work Enthusiast - Django, Python, Vue.js, Vuex, Javascript
Full Stack Developer and Remote Work Enthusiast - Django, Python, Vue.js, Vuex, Javascript

I am a remote fullstack developer who's life has been transformed by remote work. I am knowledgeable about both backend and frontend technologies.

I share my developer knowledge and my experience as a remote developer on my blog : https://remotedevdaily.com/

Backend:

I work a ton with python and django on the backend and am very confident in my skills with that stack. I've also worked a lot with the django rest framework, celery, and postgres. I've done things like creating nice crisp rest api, create web scrapers,parse documents using nlp and regular expressions, implement event based async task systems with celery, and much more.

Frontend:

I've worked extensively with vuejs and vuex. I am proficient in building out modular components, managing both local and application state, and integrating with backend api. I've also been called in on many projects to come in and perform a large refactor of messy front end vue code bases.

I am very excited to be able to share my knowledge. Please don't hesistate to reach out to me for help.
