Hi there! I’m currently on my journey to becoming a full-stack software engineer. I enjoy solving problems and learning new technologies as I go. This README gives you a little insight into how I work best, what motivates me, and how I approach learning and collaboration.

## How I Learn Best
7
+
- Independent Learning: I prefer figuring things out on my own, and I enjoy working through challenges independently before reaching out for help. This allows me to build resilience and a deeper understanding of the material.
8
+
- Visual Learning: I grasp concepts more quickly when I can visualize them. Charts, diagrams, and presentations help me organize information in a way that sticks. I find that seeing a process step-by-step or looking at a flowchart helps solidify abstract concepts.
9
+
- Planning Ahead: I like having access to the curriculum early so I can break down topics and structure my learning schedule. When I can map out what’s ahead, I feel more in control and can manage my time better.
10
+
- Mastering Subjects: I work on a subject until I feel confident enough to explain it to someone else. Teaching is one of the ways I confirm my own understanding. If I can make something simple enough for others to understand, I know I’ve truly mastered it.
11
+
- Note-Taking: I’m not the type to take long-winded notes. Instead, my notes are an organized summary of my thoughts. They serve as a reference point for later, but I tend to work through most concepts in my head first before writing anything down.

13
+
## What I Value in Collaboration
14
+
- Clear Communication: I appreciate clear, concise communication, especially in code reviews or when getting feedback. I respond well to messages that are to the point, with direct and actionable suggestions.
15
+
- Respect for Work Styles: I understand that everyone has their own preferred way of working, and I appreciate when team environments respect those differences. For me, that means giving me space to work independently but also being available for collaboration when needed.
16
+
- Knowledge Sharing: I believe that a team works best when everyone shares what they’ve learned. I enjoy exchanging tips, resources, or strategies that can help others grow. When the team is open to learning from each other, everyone benefits.

## Fun Fact
19
+
I often like to challenge myself with side projects. Whether it's exploring a new API or building a small application for fun, these projects give me a chance to experiment with new technologies and sharpen my skills.

When I was younger I spent most of my life playing video games I was fascinated by creating a world in a game that could be whatever I wanted, something to look at and share with the world being able to say I made that. I came from a very poor area and am putting in the work to better my life for myself and my future family.

## Past work
23

* 4 years at Code Differently I worked in the Youth Employment Program for the better part of 4 years, learning a variety of different coding languages and using multiple different frameworks.
24
+
25
+
* Three, 8 week internships at JPMorgan Chase & Co. I would expand on the projects I've worked on unfortunately because of NDA's I cannot elaborate upon this but I used several in house frameworks and platforms including cloud platform, creating servers and api's used within the firm.

## The Way I Learn
28
+
I am a very hands on person. I dislike lectures but I understand why they're important because you're learning from someone elses experience and saving time rather than having to go through the experience yourself.
