With over 14 years of experience in software development, I am a staff software engineer at LinkedIn, where I work with a talented team to build features and products that connect professionals and create opportunities. Prior to joining LinkedIn, I was a senior front-end engineer at Yahoo! and Cisco, where I applied my expertise in CSS and JavaScript to create engaging and responsive web applications for mobile and emerging technologies. I also hold a ScrumMaster certification, which enables me to facilitate agile and collaborative processes within my team and across the organization. As a web development expert, I am passionate about learning new technologies, solving complex problems, and delivering high-quality user experiences. I value innovation, diversity, and social impact, and I seek to contribute to LinkedIn's mission of empowering every member of the global workforce.
