# Andrew Ihn > Full Stack Software Engineer | Javascript | React | React Native | Express | Axios | CSS | TailwindCSS | MySQL | PostgreSQL | MongoDB | Firebase | Firestore Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/andrewihn My software engineering journey originated with a love for numbers and manipulating numbers. I followed this path to pharmacy and worked with several different pharmacy computer programs. I discovered the necessity and the immense benefits of a properly updated program. Combining my passion for organization and my curiosity for computer programs, I dove into computer programming and began learning how to code. Throughout Hack Reactor's 12-week advanced software engineering immersive program, I engaged in group and solo projects to learn full-stack development with AGILE methods. I learned to utilize new libraries and connect their frameworks with others to build out a functional application for a user. Constructing applications to cater a user's specific need has been a surreal experience for me. As a passionate believer in aiding others, I hope to continue creating applications to solve problems others may have!
