About Me
I am a frontend software engineer currently based in NYC. Prior to becomming a software engineer, I earned my MFA in Design at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD). This education developed the skills and experience to design hi-fidelity wireframes and conduct the design thinking methodology with a multidiscplinary team.
My design skills paired with my software engineering skills make me a complete fullstack web-application developer. I can design wireframes with Figma and script with JavaScript/React.js in order to bring ideas to life.
I am hungry for the opportunity to learn and work along side user-centered innovators. Below are the software skills, languages, and frameworks I have experience working with. I am open to learning the latest cutting-edge tech!
