My Background

Hi, I’m Matthew – a problem-solver at heart, currently making the leap into the world of software engineering. My passion for coding started about 15 years ago in high school, where I took Visual Basic and C++ courses. Since then, I've continued my programming journey through online self-learning and courses at Butler County Community College, Slippery Rock University, and Carnegie Mellon University. I'm always looking for new ways to improve my skills. With a background in data analytics and automation, plus a Master’s in IT from Carnegie Mellon University, I’ve spent years optimizing workflows, wrangling data, and building solutions that make life easier. Now, I’m ready to take my passion for programming to the next level and dive full-time into developing scalable, efficient applications.

Why would I be a great fit for a software engineering role? I love digging into complex problems, writing clean, maintainable code, and constantly learning new technologies. Whether it’s automating processes, optimizing databases, or building full-fledged applications, I thrive on creating solutions that are both functional and impactful. Plus, I bring strong collaboration and adaptability skills—because great software is built by great teams. Let’s build something awesome together!
