I graduated from CUNY Queens College in May 2020 with a bachelors in Computer Science, focusing on Web Development and Data Analytics. Along with my schooling, I attended a CUNY funded bootcamp where I furthered my knowledge in Fullstack development and data visualization, building and displaying projects to professionals and investors. Currently, I've been further deepening my knowledge by working on projects, freelancing, and working as a teaching assistant back at the boot camp to inspire and help out the next generation of developers.
