Welcome ....
I make Websites and Build API's.
Let me give you a quick intro and my current journey with code. I was a math teacher for about 7 years before I realized I was missing something in my life and wanted a career change. Computer Science was my first major in college and the one degree I regretted not completing. After some research I ended up enrolling in a JavaScript course online and I was completely hooked and then decided to go back to school to join Bloom Institute of Technology 9 month program to restart my career in Software Development.
After completing Microsoft's LEAP Apprenticeship as a Software Engineer I joined a start up that unfortunately folded after a couple of months so I decided to start my own ventures. Currently I am running my solo web agency at Maraguz Web Designs as well as my photography blog Lens Hooche Reviews. Now you can find me playing softball, coding or doing content on my website reviewing photography/videography gear.
