My origin story

I always wanted to become an Automotive Engineer but through internships and an undergraduate research in Design Thinking with VR, I also grew interested in learning to code. I wanted to build a mobile game for phones based in Puerto Rico’s culture. So when Capital One offered me to join their Developer Academy (getting paid to learn? Yes!), I rejected my full-time offer from General Motors. You can read more about that experience in this article I wrote for the Capital One blog.

What I’ve built

  • Built the ability for organizations to have dynamic, auto-branded assets out of the box using SVGs, React and Redux for a live events platform. Read more here
  • Built a podcast social network mobile app (Jam) from the ground up with React Native, TypeScript and Styled Components. Android iOS Web
  • Contributed to the web version of Jam in NextJS and Tailwind as well as the backend with Node, Prisma, and PostgreSQL
  • Developed and maintained intelligent marketing & messaging features for the Capital One iOS app
  • Mofongojobs.com where I help Puerto Rican professionals stay in PR by connecting them with local and remote career opportunities. Tech stack: React (migrated to NextJS for SEO), Strapi for CMS, Tailwind CSS. Currently working on a NodeJS backend.
