I'm James Vera
Full-Stack (MERN) Web Developer
After completing the Full-Stack Coding Bootcamp offered at UT Austin
in November of 2017, I worked as a TA for six cohorts of the same course.
Now, as an Automation Engineer at Cloudsnap,
I build "workflows", written in Ruby, which serve to transfer data between different ERPs and CRMs.
I'm interested in working as a full-time Front-End or Full-Stack Engineer position so I may
continue growing as a developer, exercise my problem-solving skills, and improve my eye for
design.
Outside of work, I enjoy playing boardgames, D&D, and Magic: the Gathering. I'm currently
playing through Pillars of Eternity II. I've also started looking into getting an electric
bike so I can get off my butt and explore the city. Leaning towards a
MOD Berlin, but if you
have any suggestions, let me know!

MERN webapp for Dungeons & Dragons that allows users to manage characters and, for spell-casting classes, keep track of what spells they know. Utilizes Cheerio to scrape this site for individual spell data, saves the data in a mySQL database, and serves RESTfull API routes via Express.
React Native Android app designed for a highschool First Robotics team to tabulate various school's scores at events. Uses the First Robotics event API to load schedule data, saves game data locally via Redux, then syncs the data to Firebase.
