PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY

I'm a self-taught full-stack developer who's built two complete web applications for my own business. I learned everything through daily study and lots of late nights solving problems. I have 5+ years working directly with clients, so I know how to communicate clearly and understand what users actually need. I'm looking for a web development role where I can keep learning and build things that work well for real people.
