Developer Profile

Fullstack developer

I'm Frank Smith III, a Fullstack Academy graduate, full-stack developer, and water treatment Field Operations Specialist based in Bergen County, New Jersey. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, and I build practical software projects around clear workflows and reliable systems.

I approach code the way I approach discipline: set a plan, execute with focus, and iterate until it's right. I keep my work straightforward and practical. If you want to see the discipline behind the code, check the photo stories that showcase jiujitsu wins, Spartan grit, and developer mindset in action.
