I like it that your resume is concise and clean. As many commentators have already said, I'd drop out the photo and added a link to your LinkedIn profile.

As I understand, you don't want to pursue a career in education anymore. So, it's cool that you concentrate on your skills and projects, not your previous experience. However, I'd make this resume clearer by adding a specific job title to the first paragraph. That shouldn't be a huge 'Objective' section, but a recruiter should understand your goals from the first glance.

As for the projects' descriptions, I'd recommend you to concentrate on your accomplishments, not the applications' functionality. Recruiters love numbers. E.g. 'Made the loading [X] times faster by implementing [Y]' might be a good eye-catcher for any recruiter. You can list your achievements for each project in short bullet-points.

In general, your resume is quite good to find a decent job. Good luck!
