ABOUT ME

STORY:

I am a problem solver. Since I was a kid,
I loved to figure out how everything worked -
I made clothes, tore apart our kitchen testing
recipes, made a machine to help me practice volleyball,
and assisted my engineer dad with projects.

I started coding on my own last year (prompted by a
suggestion from my dad, who knew how curious I was a kid
about how things worked), and fell in love. I had to learn
as much as I could.

Now, as I'm finishing up We Can Code IT's Bootcamp, I realize
this is what I wished I had been doing my whole career.

I have learned a lot of valuable things from my past jobs in
marketing and real estate, though - teamwork, leadership,
project management, adaptability, knowledge of consumer
perspective etc. I'm excited to join this experience with my
my new software development skills to apply them to a
new career.
