Hi, I'm Mike Farina. I am a full-stack software developer with almost four years of experience working in startups.

At InsurGrid, I mainly developed in a Typescript monorepo containing a few different apps utilizing NestJS, Next.JS, and Electron! I have had the amazing opportunity to be involved daily in product decisions and a love for delivering an awesome user experience! I worked as a lead member in an awesome three man engineering team. 

I have a passion for React and love working on projects that make a positive impact on the lives of the users, and developing on ideas that improve that impact.
