Never worked in a cubicle.
I just build real things.
Hey, I'm Seth. I'm 18 years old. While I don't have corporate employment history on my resume yet, I've spent the last 9 years teaching myself to code and maintain systems. I know by heart many languages, such as HTML, JS, Python, and Rust, as well as some C++ and Java.

Why hire an 18-year-old with zero official tech jobs?
Most devs my age are learning syntax in school. I've been learning to code since I was 9 years old, starting off on scratch.mit.edu, and now hosting websites and making full programs.
Zero Corporate Bureaucracy
I don't need 3 weeks of meetings to center a div or push a patch. I write clean code, test endpoints locally, document my commits, and ship fast.
Full-Stack & Security Depth
I bridge the gap between frontend DOM manipulation, backend API scaling, Linux server administration, and cybersecurity hardening.

function sanitizePayload(req, res, next) {
const maliciousPattern = /(\%27)|(\')|(\-\-)|(\%23)|(#)/i;
if (maliciousPattern.test(JSON.stringify(req.body))) {
console.warn(`[BLOCKED] Suspicious payload signature from IP: ${req.ip}`);
return res.status(403).json({ error: "Access Denied: Security violation detected." });
}
next();
}
Ready to give an 18-year-old their first tech job?
I'm hungry to prove myself, learn from senior mentors, and ship robust code. Reach out via GitHub, LinkedIn, or email.
