About

My name is Brandon and I am a dedicated and highly motivated Software Engineer. I graduated from Florida State University with a bachelor's degree, including a Major in Criminology and a Minor in Computer Science. With a consistent itch to dig deeper into code, I attended and completed a 6-month Software Engineering program at the State College of Florida. Within the program I learned fundamentals in both front end and back end application development. We went thorugh 640 clock hours of training which included projects, coding reviews, and presentations. I also enjoy living in sunny Sarasota, FL however i would be willing to relocate if the match is right. In my personal life and spare time i enjoy training for cross-country races, swimming at the beaches, and hanging out with my dog.

I am logically minded and and find solving difficult problems to be highly satisfactory. I want to make the world a better place through code.

Software Engineer & Web Developer.

Fullstack qualified with a main focus on front end development.
