My passion for coding started when I created fan sites for music artists in my youth, using drag-and-drop platforms like Angelfire and Geocities*, and later teaching myself HTML and CSS. After going to school for PR and becoming a project manager-turned-product manager for 11 years, I realized it was time for a career change and enrolled in App Academy.
Now, as a full-stack software engineer, I'm building dynamic web applications, applying the professional skills I've developed over the years, and—more importantly—finally pursuing that childhood passion of mine.
