WHO IS
CJ THOMAS?

I’m CJ — a software engineer in training with a designer’s eye and a strategist’s mindset. I move between pixels and Python, always hunting for clarity in complexity.

My background blends code, finance, and storytelling — from developing visual dashboards to building AI-powered tools and documenting moments through my lens.

I believe good systems feel inevitable, not forced. And good code reads like a thought, not a task. I’m building toward a future where logic and creativity aren’t opposites — they’re teammates.

💭 Why I Build

I build tools I wish I had. Whether it’s making class planning smarter or turning stat noise into signal, my goal is simple: clarity. Not just for me — but for the next version of me that hasn’t figured it out yet.
