I have strong skills in designing and implementing RESTful APIs, JSON, JWT, and other web standards. I also have experience with AWS, Heroku, Git, RSpec, Capybara, and other tools and frameworks. I truly care about people and enjoy collaborating with product managers, designers, and my fellow developers to deliver features and bug fixes that meet user needs and expectations.
