Where are you from, and where do you currently reside?
I’m from Daytona Beach, Florida and after living in Orlando for a little bit, I’ve moved back to the beaches.
Please share additional details about your past work experience, your education and/or training, and any notable professional skills.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Central Florida where I spent 3 years learning everything about Computer Science. I used these skills at my last internship as a programmer analyst intern at Halifax Health. In that environment I was able to learn new technologies, work with new people and have my first real professional experience. A few of the skills I’ve picked up over the past couple years are the .NET suite, React web development and database fundamentals among other full stack technologies.
What are you most looking forward to in joining the RunSignup team?
I am looking forward to expanding my skills and working in a team environment outside of my studies as well as gaining hands on experience doing what I am passionate about.
Tell us about your hobbies and interests, and what you like to do for fun outside of work.
After playing 4 years of high school baseball, I filled my new free time with bouldering, pickleball and disc golf.
What is a fun fact about yourself?
I called the Rangers winning the World Series after watching them crush the Rays in 2023 American League Wildcard Series.
