Hello world, I'm a full-stack engineer with track record of crafting polished, user-friendly applications. My experience as a Software Engineer at the University of Phoenix complmented with certification from the Coding Bootcamp at UC-Irvine, provides a strong skillset in DevOps and full-stack development.
I’m a converted craft brewer turned full-stack engineer and currently brewing up React applications, microservices, and cloud infrastructure as a Software Engineer at the University of Phoenix. I decided to transfer my brewing skills to the software industry after experiencing the frustrations of using inefficient brewing software and web applications. Seeking solutions, I developed an ardent interest in computer programming, enrolled in the Coding Boot Camp at UC-Irvine, and created Beer Peers, a craft-beer recipe sharing web application.
I spend my free time rewatching The Office, exploring and enjoying the great outdoors, and continuing my quest for the best bibimbap in the area. If you’d like to discuss any topic from brewing sciences, Korean restaurant recommendations, or software development please feel free to contact me at: nickclear22@gmail.com.
