ABOUT ME
Python, Django, and React dev
Python, Django, and React dev
Hey, I'm Sam. Over the past 11 years, I have developed numerous applications in Django, React, and my favorite language, Python. I have worked with many types and size clients, all the way from the marketing department of Shell Oil to software companies like kepion.com, and to smaller businesses such as full-time sellers on Ebay.
Specializing in Django and focusing on clients' business success, I am able to deliver quality applications that help meet business goals. For Shell Oil, I assisted in improving conversion rates and evaluating marketing campaigns. My Ebay client was proud to announce that she doubled her revenue within a year of using my Django-based solution.
In recent times I've gained experience with ChatGPT, Replicate, and Deepgram AI APIs, and Github Copilot for coding. I look forward to continuing utilizing and exploring how these new technologies assist our work going forward.
