I'm currently a Graduate Teaching Assistant at the State University of New Paltz where I lead lab sessions for students and conduct office hours for additional help. I work alongside the Computer Science department to determine efficient ways of helping students learn the materials of their courses.

I've worked with customers and clients with computer and internet troubleshooting, sales, and consulting for almost 3 years now. It's become a clear to me that a big part of working with others (especially customers) is to understand what it is they need and want, and work with them to understand what the goal is and how you can achieve it.

I recently graduated with a BS in Computer Engineering and am currently pursuing a Master of Science in Computer Science. I'm eagerly seeking entry-level opportunities while also building a portfolio to showcase my creative abilities and skills.

Interests

Apart from being a full-time student and freelance web developer, I enjoy most of my time being with friends and family. My main hobbies would be playing soccer, going to the gym, and listening to music. My favorite soccer player is Lionel Messi, of course.

I love watching movies and shows during my free time. I enjoy all types of genres, but mainly thriller, horror, mystery, drama, and action. Anime is also a great watch, my favorite being "One Piece".

I also enjoy graphic design and have created logos and business cards for my clients. I like to have fun creating new designs and exploring my creativity.
