As a Software Engineer at Vivoom, I am primarily a Frontend UX/UI Developer working in Node using the Angularjs Framework, with SQL and MongoDB on the backend, creating mobile responsive web apps.
Among our many capabilities (including analytics, attribution, curation, moderation, webhooks and other integrations,) I am largely focused on building components within a complex self-serve CMS, and customizing our specific Consumer Experience apps, according to client needs.
Builds are done with Grunt, Git, Maven and Docker, and deployed with AWS. Currently working towards templatizing the customizable Consumer Experience apps, and building automated publishing capabilities through the client-facing CMS.

Though I'd been a programming hobbyist since high school, my interest in coding gained traction when I became an Audiobook Producer, and was curious about what happens "under the hood" with Digital Audio Workspace software. In my home studio, I still occasionally record and edit shortform voice-overs, having voiced many TV, film, video, radio and commercial projects. I've leant my communication skills to management consulting teams, helping businesses train C-level executives, for companies that include Microsoft, Barclays, and Aetna.
