👋

Hello, I'm Garick Mendez. I'm a Frontend Engineer with 4 years of experience. I enjoy building reactive and rich sites & apps with a focus in business. My main stack is React, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.

About me

I always liked to spend my time learning and creating, which helped me find my passion for software development. In May 2024, I graduated St. Edward's University with a major in computer science and a minor in business, and am now pursuing my passion full-time. My favorite part of programming is bringing ideas to life and collectively solving problems.

My core stack includes React, Next.js, Node.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. I also work with development tools such as npm and Git. I enjoy composing and producing my own music, watch and play soccer, and explore the city of Austin, TX. I like to go to concerts around town and try the many foods this city has to offer.
