Frontend Developer

A thoughtful problem solver. Enjoys designing and building for web.

ABOUT

Art and craft have always been my passion. These two seemingly contrasting interests came together when I first wrote a few lines of CSS and JavaScript at work to update a simple button UI. This was the "aha!" moment that led me into a career in front-end development.

I attended Springboard coding academy where I spent 8 months learning the fundamentals of front-end development while working full-time.

In my recent year at Eidex, I was involved in a project to upgrade one of the company's flagship products (PRISM 2.0), where I designed and implemented UI features and components. Through these experiences, I had the opportunity to not only enhance my front-end development skills but also develop a working style that leans towards learning, attention to detail, and collaboration.
