So who am i?🤔
Bio.
My name is Albert Paez and I am a software engineer committed to a lifestyle of learning and building.
Why I love development: (1) I love learning from obstacles that arise when working on projects,(2) I find purpose in creating applications for the sake of pure creativity or applications that help solve common problems and(3) I enjoy building relationships with team members and working together to create software we're proud of.
As a California State University-Fullerton alumni, holding a Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science, I aim to hone my skills so that I can contribute greatly to the tech industry. Furthermore, I am a firm believer that anyone can achieve greatness as long they have the humility to learn.
Tech.
Over the years, I have picked up several languages and frameworks. Here are some of the languagues I speak:
Front-End Technologies: I have a lot of fun with React.js, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, and Bulma.css for creating intuitive and user-friendly interfaces. Whether it be the next Facebook or a simple dad joke website, I simply enjoy the process.
Back-End Technologies: I get really passionate using Java, Spring Boot, MySQL, MongoDB, and Supabase. Crafting a robust backend service is my jam. I enjoy the level of detail required and the overall big picture of how the data can be consumed by a client.
Other Technologies: Git, AWS, C++
