A website to connect San Francisco residents with their local schools' opportunities for volunteering and donating.

I'm a Software Engineer at Nayak.ai with nearly two decades of experience leading operations and billing teams. I don't just build user interfaces; I build reliable, performant tools designed to solve bottlenecks. My background in high-stakes triage means I approach every React component with a focus on reliability, efficiency, and scale.

Hello! I'm Brandon Cruz-Youll, a dedicated front-end developer with a fervent passion for continuous learning and growth. I spent 18 years in medical triage and billing operations—a world where there is no room for lag, ambiguity, or broken workflows. That 'Operator’s Mindset' is what I bring to the browser. My specialty is building frontend infrastructure that solves real-world bottlenecks. Whether it's optimizing React renders for real-time AI tools at Nayak.ai or leading a framework migration for SF Civic Tech, I build with a focus on reliability, performance, and scale. I don't just ship code; I build tools that work when the stakes are high.
I thrive on the challenge of solving complex problems and exploring new technologies to stay ahead of industry trends. Whether it's optimizing performance, improving accessibility, or experimenting with the latest frameworks, I am committed to delivering high-quality solutions that exceed expectations. My goal is to blend technical skill with creative insight to create seamless, engaging digital experiences that leave a lasting impression. Let's collaborate to bring your next project to life!
