Hi 👋 I'm Dereck Quock

I'm a software engineer from the Bay Area 🌉

I studied computer engineering at Cal Poly SLO and fell in love with web development after taking a software engineering tech elect class. Although building robots are fun 🤖 I've always been passionate about crafting enjoyable user experiences.

After I graduated, I started my journey at PayPal and became fascinated with the payments space and enabling commerce all over the globe. Now I use web technologies to build exceptional experiences 👨‍💻

I focus mainly on React, React Native, Gatsby, GraphQL, Node, Express, and I'm expanding my TypeScript knowledge.

More about me

I love my wife 💁 and my dog 🐶

I love golf ⛳ and music 🥁 (I can play the drums)
