Hello I'm

About me
Currently a WordPress Developer/Programmer for Purpose Driven Connection. I found a particular passion for Web Development and building products that makes the lives of others easier. Outside of work, I enjoy watching basketball, playing video games and hanging out with friends and family.
This webpage is currently a work in progress and a project for myself to practice using HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery, Bootstrap and more to build an interactive and responsive online portfolio.
