Hi! I'm Oliver. Thank you for stopping by!
I attended University of California, Irvine's (Continuing Education) Full Stack Web Developer program learning a range from Front End, Databases, Computer Science, Server Side Development, API design, Deployment and Management, Agile Methodology, and more. Key toolsets include React, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, MySQL, Node.js, Express.js, and more.
I was born and raised in San Diego, and currently reside in Orange County, CA. My coding journey started in my late teens when MySpace and Tumblr was at its peak. I wondered how everything worked, so I tinkered with code until I could figure out how everything functioned. I enjoyed putting the pieces together. After the popularity of those websites died, I stopped coding. I found out as an adult that careers existed with this, so I happily made the switch into this field.
Besides coding, I love art and design in general. I started my childhood with drawing, then I got inspired in my early teens to pick up the guitar, sing, and make music. In my late teens, I started to dance, and also fell in love with photography. Most recently, I've tried acting and worked behind the scenes for short films thanks to my connections.
