Welcome to my portfolio!

Hey folks, I'm
Cory Kane a Web Developer a Teacher a Musician

With 7 years of professional experience in JavaScript, React, Node, and MongoDB, and a newfound expertise in DynamoDB, I specialize in building efficient, scalable solutions that tackle real-world problems. My career started with automating tasks that saved my team hundreds of hours, and since then, I’ve been combining my engineering and teaching skills at App Academy, where I developed MERN stack and data structure/algorithm curriculums. I thrive on turning complex challenges into streamlined, innovative solutions, and I’m eager to bring that same drive and expertise to a dynamic team ready to push the boundaries of technology.
