Hello, I am Jeremy,

Back-End Software Developer

🫘 Former bean counter turned code writer.

👨‍💻 With a unique blend of 10 years in accounting and a passion for coding, I bring a diverse skill set to the world of software development. My technical proficiency includes, but is not limited to, JavaScript, React, HTML/CSS, Python, and SQL.

👨‍💻 My journey started in accounting, where I honed my analytical skills, problem-solving abilities, and gained experience working collaboratively. However, my fascination with technology led me to transition into pursuing a career in software engineering. I am looking to leverage my background in accounting to help any team come up with solutions that meet technical requirements, while also keeping an eye on business needs and understanding how the two sides should work together.
