Frontend Developer with JavaScript Skills

primarily self taught, through a tinkering habit; spent several years doing various tech ops work, ranging from restaurants to SaaS, before eventually jumping to frontend dev at the latter. Worked in FE-leaning full-stack roles in a couple different fintech companies, but that's more luck of the draw and less any particular attraction to that industry. Current side project is to automate the act of doomscrolling job boards. I've been building a Tinder clone in my spare time around the results, albeit repeatedly rabbit-holed into various escapades around upstream PRs and efforts to evade bot detection methods. Other things I tinker with include Llamafile, IoT, creative code, and the occasional CTF puzzle. Areas of curiosity that are not in my background include things like cybersecurity, infra, and eCommerce. Hard no's: Crypto, military contractors, Amazon, anything owned or operated by Elon Musk.
