Hello, I'm Aaron. I'm a full-stack developer with 3+ years of experience. I enjoy designing and building websites & apps. My focus is React (Next.js) & TypeScript.
About me
* UNDER CONSTRUCTION *
After becoming an optometrist, I discovered programming by trying to automate some work for the front desk, and became instantly hooked. I went the self-guided route, taking a myriad of online courses from outstanding instructors as I learned full-stack web development. B
My favorite part of programming is the ability to have any (tech-related) idea and put it into existence. It's been a long journey for me to figure out the best career path for myself, but I'm quite confident that I've arrived. I love so much about programming -- the constant problem-solving, the discrete and organized way of thinking that programming encourages, the ability to constantly be rewarded through increased productivity and efficiency with the more effort that you put into it. It's all the right fit for who I am.
My current preferred stack is the T3 Stack (React 18+ (RSCs), NextJS 13+ (app router), TypeScript, Prisma, tRPC, Zod, NodeJS), MUI, React Hook Form, and MongoDB. I am always doing my best to stay up-to-date with the quickly evolving JavaScript world, to keep my stack fresh with the latest and best in DX and UX. I am also familiar with a number of other libraries and languages.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy working out, watching tv shows and movies, traveling, and having social fun.
