GitHub Sponsors Profile

I am a self-taught software engineer with a passion for creating innovative solutions and enhancing user experiences. In addition to my technical expertise, I am also a skilled documentation engineer who is committed to creating clear and concise technical documentation that empowers users. As a keynote speaker and event organizer, I enjoy sharing my knowledge and insights with others and inspiring them to pursue their goals. I also take pride in mentoring and supporting the next generation of tech professionals, helping them develop their skills and achieve their full potential.
For the last four years, I’ve made it my mission to pave the way for other people trying to create a better future. Through public speaking, mentoring, and actively advocating for underrepresented individuals I have helped over 2K people jumpstart their tech careers.
Recently, I have stepped into leadership roles such as Co-lead for my employers Black@Pride ERG, an independent Dev Advocate, and a Public Speaker who has spoken for over 30 conferences on topics ranging from "Getting Started with Gatsby JS", "Creating Inclusive Content", and " Why Building ERGs for Your Specific Identities Matter & How to Make it Happen".
By sponsoring me, you help provide me the mobility to create opportunities for underrepresented individuals who are just getting started in their tech careers and provide me with the freedom to continue to do the community work without the financial burden.
My goal is to pay it forward and help people see that you don’t have to go the traditional route to be successful. As long as you want it, you can achieve it!
Thank you ❤️
