About Me

I'm Christian Diaz, a Computer Science student at UMass Amherst building full-stack applications with modern technologies.

I specialize in creating production-ready web applications using React, Next.js, Node.js, and cloud platforms like AWS and Heroku. My recent work includes a secure document management system for condo residents and an e-commerce platform for translation services.

I'm currently collaborating with Build UMass on modernizing their website and implementing an AI-powered search engine for new opportunities. I'm also creating a website for a small student run podcast on campus to help them expand their audience and announce new episodes. I'm also constantly updating my completed projects to keep them modern and responsive.
