Lets make something.

Hi, Franco here, I'm a Software Engineer based in Chicago, currently working on the eCommerce software team at S&S Activewear. I've spent much of my career working on web based platforms, but I have a passion for low-level embedded systems and data analysis as well.

Experience

Previously, I developed my expertise at Donnelley Financial Solutions, where I helped build a regulatory compliance platform. As the primary React Developer, I led frontend development before helping migrate our application to Blazor. My full-stack experience includes working extensively with C# APIs and collaborating with the data ingestion team to optimize SQL database performance.

I studied Computer Engineering at Marquette University, where I focused my studies on Intelligent systems, with additional coursework focusing on Data Mining and Artificial Intelligence. Additionally I had a capstone project building a bluetooth hub for clinical devices allowing me to study Internet of Things (IoT) systems, embedded programming, and mobile debelopment. My coursework and projects gave me a strong foundation in both hardware and software development, which I continue to leverage in my professional career.

Professional Growth

I'm committed to continuous learning through personal projects exploring new technologies and structured education like Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course. I've also volunteered with Chicago International Model United Nations, developing their client-facing website with TypeScript and building their internal staff application management system.

Outside of work I‘m one of the many millenials that fell in love with analogue photography and I've been working on getting a few shots worth showing together.
