About Me

Hi, I'm Tyler Ruiz! A dedicated Full-Stack Software Engineer with a strong passion for building scalable, user-friendly web applications. My journey into programming began through self-driven experimentation and building small projects at home, which eventually led me to complete the Springboard Software Engineering Career Track. Since then, I've worked on a variety of personal and collaborative projects that have sharpened my skills and deepened my understanding of modern development practices and the web overall.

Outside of coding, I enjoy playing video games, listening to music, and spending time with friends and family. I'm constantly seeking to learn, grow, and improve my abilities as a developer. Whether it's tackling new challenges or diving into the latest tech, I'm excited to continue pushing forward in my journey and see where it takes me next.
