Who I Am
I'm a full-stack web developer with a strong science background who spent seven years as a classroom teacher. I am very interested in the intersection of education and technology, and especially in increasing access and participation among girls, women, and diverse populations. I have a positive outlook, strong work ethic, and analytic mind. Runner, reader, coffee-lover.


What I Do
I listen carefully to a client's ideas for a website or application, and keep the spirit of their project intact as I build it. I use wireframes and prototyping tools to draft the idea and begin to bring it to life, welcoming input along the way. Besides my ability to design, code and test new web applications, I stay organized in sense-of-urgency environments, and innovate through any problem with a can-do attitude. Helping others is important to me, as is teamwork. I'm enthusiastic about investigating and developing skills in new technologies, and would love to continue mentoring others who are interested in software development.
