Hello! I'm Spencer, a passionate technologist and aspiring entrepreneur, deeply committed to leveraging cutting-edge technology to solve real-world problems. My journey in the tech industry is propelled by a profound interest in tech entrepreneurship, particularly within the startup ecosystem, where innovation and adaptability are at their peak.

My technical expertise is anchored in a strong foundation with React.js/React Native, Node.js, AWS, and SQL. These skills have enabled me to craft user-centric, scalable, and robust applications, which are not only functional but also intuitive and forward-thinking. This technical proficiency is a vital part of my journey toward my ultimate goal: starting my own tech company. I envision this venture as a fusion of innovative technology and impactful solutions, aiming to leave a significant mark in the tech world.

Alongside my technical pursuits, I am dedicated to a path of continuous learning and professional development. This drive is not just about keeping up with the latest technological trends, but also about enriching my understanding of the business and entrepreneurial aspects of technology. I believe that a deep comprehension of both technical and business domains is crucial for creating solutions that are not only technologically advanced but also commercially viable and user-friendly.

In this ever-evolving tech landscape, I am constantly seeking opportunities to collaborate with like-minded professionals, teams, and organizations. I am enthusiastic about sharing ideas, learning from others, and contributing to projects that have the potential for a real and lasting impact. My ambition is to merge my technical skills with my entrepreneurial spirit to create a platform where innovative ideas can flourish.

Let's connect and explore the possibilities of what we can achieve together in this exciting world of technology!
