mventura@portfolio~%cat about.md# a short bio

I work fluently across the full stack — from React and Next.js frontends through Postgres and Express backends to Dockerized homelab infrastructure and Figma-driven product design.

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Maryland who ships end-to-end: Next.js and PostgreSQL automation for 240+ scholars, a clinician-facing computer-vision dashboard deployed with National Children's Hospital, and a React + SQL performance platform adopted by 30+ schools. On the infrastructure side I run a Raspberry Pi homelab — Dockerized services over Tailscale with a personal dashboard, Jellyfin, and this portfolio. Whether it's APIs, databases, UI, or deployment, I move comfortably across layers instead of staying in one lane.
