Hi, I'm Newton 👋

B.S. Math-CS · Full-stack Engineer · Open Source Contributor

I'm a software engineer based in San Francisco, CA. I studied Mathematics–Computer Science at UC San Diego, and since graduating I've been building real products — from civic tech platforms to SaaS internships to open-source contributions. I care about writing code that reaches real users and making CS more accessible to people who are just getting started.

🔨 What I'm Working On

  • CleverFi — SWE Intern for a SaaS platform that automates guest Wi-Fi access for businesses! (React · GraphQL · Firebase)
  • SafeHome @ SFCivicTech — Lead backend engineer on a civic tech platform assessing earthquake risk for SF homes! (Node.js · Railway)
  • FreeCodeCamp Classroom — Maintainer for FreeCodeCamp's upcoming classroom integration solution! (TypeScript · React · Node.js)

📚 What I'm Learning

  • Backend architecture & cloud infrastructure (Railway, serverless patterns, ETL pipelines)
  • AI-assisted development — integrating LLM tools into day-to-day engineering workflows
  • System design fundamentals and scalable API patterns

🛠 Tech Stack

Languages: TypeScript · JavaScript · Python · Java · HTML · CSS
Frameworks & Libraries: React.js · Node.js · Next.js · GraphQL
Tools & Platforms: Firebase · Railway · Docker · Git
Databases: PostgreSQL · MongoDB
