Software Engineer with a passion for collaboration

Coming into tech after a decade working in endangered species care and conservation at the Walt Disney Company. I love the creativity, logic, and flow of coding, and that there is always more to learn. I enjoy the balance of full stack programming, and I love connecting with and bringing out the best in others.

Pup Trainer

PERN stack app with Typescript and JWT auth
Training is a wonderful way to bond with your dog, and to teach them how to interact with the human world. The internet is full of resources and opinions, but sorting through them to find the good ones can be challenging. I have more than a decade of professional animal care, management, and training experience, so I built Pup Trainer to connect dog owners with safe, positive, and effective training materials online.

For animals in human care, being able to participate in health management has huge physical, mental, and social benefits.

It helps improve functionality and monitoring of training progress, and has an easy-to-follow, intuitive design flow. Come see what these stunning animals are learning!

Wordle

JS, CSS, HTML
A word-based game that tasks players with guessing a secret 5 letter word in 6 turns or fewer. Each guess tells you how close - or far - you are from the correct word. Many people enjoy Wordle, but a common complaint is that it can only be played once a day. Now it can be played as often as desired, at any degree of difficulty!

About

A few things about me

I love the creativity, logic, and flow of coding, and have especially enjoyed learning React and PostgreSQL. I gained a lot of experience in project management and creative problem-solving while working with endangered species at The Walt Disney Company, and took pride in developing positive, professional, and highly-functional work relationships. Outside of work I also love music, yoga, meditation, nature, travel, and training my two crazy but wonderful dogs.
