About Me

I’m a full stack developer with a background in design. I received a BBA from Parsons the New School for Design in Strategic Design & Management & worked freelance in the costume department for film, before being laid off due to COVID-19. At the peak of the pandemic, I saw an opportunity to challenge myself on learning JavaScript, in hopes of continuing my passion at a different angle. This led me to complete The Grace Hopper Program at Fullstack Academy, a 17-week immersive program for full stack web development. I am proficient in programming languages such as JavaScript, HTML, CSS,, and, and have experience in the frameworks/libraries of Express, React.js, and Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Sequelize. I am eager to learn and understand how design, community, and accessibility all intersect in the midst of the ever-growing demand for technology. I’m inspired to make an impact within my own community as well as work to make the tech field a more inclusive space.

I'm looking for
I feel driven to do my best to promote inclusion and accessibility in tech, a world which interested me but for years felt unapproachable as a woman and Latinx creative. For this reason, I am looking to grow within a company who invests in their employees and cultivates diversity and inclusion.
