Experienced Ruby on Rails Developer with a strong track record in optimizing scalable applications, improving system performance, and leading collaborative, high-performing teams.

I started my journey as a developer after transitioning from a leadership role in hospitality, where I managed teams and honed my problem-solving and collaboration skills. This background gave me a unique perspective when I dove into software development, where I quickly grew passionate about building scalable, efficient applications using Ruby on Rails. A recent milestone I’m proud of was optimizing RESTful API endpoints that now serve over 150,000 active users, reducing server load by 15% and improving latency during high-traffic periods. I also automated database migrations using GitHub Actions, boosting efficiency by 30%.

In my development career, I’ve learned the value of refactoring legacy code to reduce technical debt and improve maintainability, which has helped me streamline systems for greater scalability. I’m passionate about creating clean, efficient code and mentoring junior developers, ensuring that not only do I solve problems, but I also help elevate the team’s skills. What sets me apart is my ability to merge technical expertise with leadership experience, helping teams collaborate effectively and make meaningful contributions to projects. My unique combination of development skills and leadership experience allows me to tackle challenges from a holistic perspective and deliver impactful results that others might overlook.
