Bio
Nick Palutsis
I highly recommend Sofia for any future development positions. As her project manager, I had the pleasure of working with her during the summer as an intern developer. Sofia's eagerness to acquire new skills and her proficiency with diverse skills ranging from SQL to NodeJS to Python to Angular was truly impressive. She seamlessly integrated into the project and accomplished full-stack updates to establish a brand-new data pipeline that leveraged machine learning models to isolate bird songs in recordings and accurately identify them. I was impressed with how Sofia learned to make the software development life cycle part of her daily practice and keep the team informed of her status as her work transitioned through each phase of it. She also effectively presented her changes to the client at the close of each sprint. Sofia worked together with other developers to test their changes and successfully deploy them to production. I am confident that Sofia will continue to excel in any future development roles she takes on.
