Software Engineer looking to develop impactful applications to take on difficult challenges.

Hi, I’m Adam! I’m a Full-Stack Software Engineer certified in Salesforce Commerce Cloud and Amazon Web Services. I graduated magna cum laude from the University of South Carolina with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a Business Administration minor and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. I currently work at CVS Health working with frontend and cloud development. I’ve also worked at Publicis Sapient where I developed Salesforce Commerce Cloud cartridges and developed commerce tools integrations for major US retailers. I’ve also worked at the University of South Carolina’s Research Computing creating researcher tools, video repositories, and a computer vision mosquito egg counting web and mobile platform. I want to continue learning and working hard to create impactful applications that can improve our society. Feel free to reach out!

My Goals and Interests

I want to build applications that bring simplicity and purpose to the end user. I am on a mission to learn how to create impactful software. Software Engineering is a job that has endless possibilities and ways to benefit the world. As the world becomes more and more dependent on technology, I look around and think about how it is all possible. I want my code to have an impact in the hands of people all around the world. I am always learning new things, building on my knowledge to expand my capacity to build. I am currently learning more about Cloud services (AWS/GCP). My strength is my ability to learn and keep persevering when working on a project or task.

In my free time, I love to travel, ski, listen to music (love festivals!), grab sushi and ice cream, and trying new things!
