About Me

Hi there! I'm Carlos De Leon, a Software Engineer currently completing a development internship at a tourism technology company serving Mexico and the Dominican Republic. Previously, I spent 10+ years as a COO and General Manager in the Hospitality Industry, where I successfully led teams of 100+ professionals and managed operations generating $1.5M USD in monthly revenue with 30% profit margins.

Today, I’m focused on building modern, scalable, and responsive web applications with React, Next.js, Astro, Tailwind CSS, and Firebase, with a strong emphasis on clean code, performance, and intuitive UI/UX. My leadership background adds proven strengths in project management, data-driven decision making, and thriving under pressure which I bring to every technical challenge I take on.
