Who am I?

Prior to becoming a software engineer, I worked in digital marketing and database analytics. I used R to analyze vast sets of data and to build the most fitting probabilistic models for the given dataset. Since becoming a software engineer, I’ve developed strong skills in React, Redux, Ruby, Javascript and Rails. I’m also skilled in interface design and am comfortable working on both front and backend features.
