Saalim Mixon's Portfolio

About Me

I am Saalim Mixon, a software developer and digital marketer based out of Detroit, Michigan. I have a strong passion for developing user-friendly and visually appealing applications. My journey in technology started with a 21-week bootcamp where I learned the fundamentals of web development, and since then, I have honed my skills through various projects and professional experiences.

Currently, I am a student at the Apple Developer Academy @ Michigan State University, where I am learning the intricacies of iOS app development and the overall workflow of Apple. I enjoy tackling challenging projects that push my limits and allow me to grow as a developer.

In my free time, I love exploring the latest tech trends, experimenting with new programming languages, and contributing to open-source projects. I am also an avid gamer and enjoy spending time with family and friends.
