Senior Full-Stack Software Engineer | SaaS & Data Platforms | APIs | Automation | React | PHP | JavaScript
Full-stack software engineer and product builder based in Chesapeake, VA, architecting scalable SaaS platforms, real-time analytics systems, and conversion-focused digital experiences that bridge engineering, data, and user experience.
Background & experience in engineering and product
I'm a full-stack software engineer and product builder based in Chesapeake, VA, currently completing a BS in Computer Science (Software Engineering) at SNHU.
My experience spans the full software development lifecycle, from architecting responsive front-end interfaces to building scalable back-end systems, REST APIs, authentication workflows, analytics integrations, and production-ready SaaS applications.
I've designed and developed a real-time financial analytics platform focused on market structure intelligence, dealer positioning analytics, volatility forecasting, and high-frequency data visualization tools. The platform includes subscription infrastructure, role-based access control, forecasting engines, heatmaps, live data polling systems, and interactive dashboard experiences optimized for active users.
My technical stack includes PHP, JavaScript, React, Python, MySQL, Tailwind CSS, REST APIs, analytics integrations, and server-side infrastructure management. I focus heavily on system architecture, API design, automation pipelines, performance optimization, and building software that solves real operational and business problems, not just interfaces.
Previously, I contributed to web development and SEO initiatives at Mancon Inc., led digital experiences and brand development at Watson Apparel, and strengthened infrastructure and troubleshooting expertise at InMotion Hosting through hands-on server, migration, and hosting support work.
Beyond client work, I enjoy building SaaS products, experimenting with product strategy and automation systems, producing electronic instrumental music, and continuously expanding my software engineering skill set.

Production applications, SaaS platforms, and client systems
A real-time options analytics SaaS for retail traders: dealer positioning, gamma exposure, and volatility structure visualized through live data polling, interactive charting, and a tiered subscription model with role-based access.
A home services marketplace connecting homeowners with local contractors: lead capture, scheduling, quote/estimate generation, and automated lifecycle messaging (lead nudges, stale-lead alerts, review requests, recurring-service reminders) built on cron-driven automation.
A WNBA media publication with live-score API integrations, automated cron-driven content pipelines, SEO-optimized structured data and a Google News sitemap, auto-posting to X on final scores, affiliate monetization, and a double opt-in newsletter system.
A connected CRM and transaction platform for real estate brokerages: prospecting leads, contacts, CMA reports, listings, and closed deals are linked end-to-end so data flows through the pipeline instead of being re-entered at each stage. Includes an AI-assisted listing marketing kit (descriptions, social posts, email announcements), a rule-based lead-scoring engine, a live commission calculator, and a brokerage-wide activity feed powering a daily "next best actions" briefing.
A full-stack developer platform where users register, generate scoped API keys, and call REST endpoints through a custom-built gateway: JWT-based sessions, SHA-256-hashed key validation, MySQL-backed rate limiting, and structured request logging, all surfaced in a live React analytics dashboard with request volume, error rates, and latency percentiles.
A multi-tenant developer analytics platform combining a Stripe-like developer experience with Google Analytics-style insights: a lightweight JavaScript SDK for tracking events, page views, and users, a REST ingestion API, and a dashboard with an event explorer, charts, and user analytics.
