Hey there, I'm Austin. I'm a full-stack developer with 6 years of full-time experience. I enjoy building sites, apps, & integrations. My focus is React (Frontend) and Laravel (Backend).
About Me
I'm a Reno, NV local and a UNR Alumnus. I'm a hard worker, a team player, and self-motivated. I enjoy working with diverse people and learning and collaborating with others. The best part of programming is the problem-solving aspect - I love the feeling of finally figuring out a solution to a problem. My frontend stack is React, NextJS, & NodeJS. My api stack is Linux, Apache, MySQL, & PHP. I am also familiar with C++ and Java, and I'm always looking to learn new technologies. I am currently looking for a full-time position as a software developer.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy making music, learning languages, playing tennis, and playing video games. I am also a classically trained saxophonist. I have been playing for 15 years and I have recently started learning the violin.
