Hello, I'm Franklin. I'm a full-stack developer with 10 years of experience. I enjoy building sites & apps. My focus is React (Next.js).
About Me
I began programming in 2010 creating fully custom websites with core web languages (HTML/CSS/JS). After deciding to embrace development as my full time career in 2020, I was able to build on this solid foundation and complete a full-stack developer bootcamp which sharpened my knowledge of modern frameworks and technologies. My favorite part of programming is creating elegant solutions leveraging structured data. I love systems thinking and finding the best solutions to suit unique business logic.
My core stack is React, Next.js, Node.js, and PostgreSQL. I am always looking to learn new technologies. I am currently looking for a full-time position as a software developer.
When I'm not coding, I also enjoy performing as a Jazz pianist and creating original musical compositions.
