About Me

Hi, I'm Adalberto, but most people call me Adal. I'm a Computer Science graduate from Texas State University with a minor in Mathematics and a background in full-stack development, data engineering, and machine learning. I've worked professionally building ETL pipelines, cloud-deployed applications, and search infrastructure using Python, React, and GCP, and I currently freelance as a software engineer building production web applications. What sets me apart as a tutor is that I don't just know the theory, but I build things every day. Whether it's a real-time facial analysis app using MediaPipe and Three.js, data pipelines with asyncio and pandas, or full-stack platforms with React and REST APIs, I bring practical context to every concept I teach. I know what it's like to wrestle with a recursion problem at 2 AM or debug a Docker container that worked five minutes ago, so I meet students where they are with patience and real-world examples. I'm passionate about making CS concepts click, especially for students who feel intimidated by programming. I'm bilingual in English and Spanish, which helps me connect with a wider range of learners. Whether you need help with intro Python, data structures and algorithms, database design, or web development, I'd love to help you build confidence and actually enjoy the process.
