Developers with Pivot Skills

Enthusiast of all things in the water. Engineer. Active, excited.

I did graphic design professionally for 20 years before a series of events tore me down. As part of my healing I took a chance on myself, my future, my family and entered a development bootcamp. Not knowing where it would lead or even if I could do it. Months later I graduated knowing how to code, how to think as a developer and knowing a TON about myself. I don’t know where this journey will go but I know I am in it to build tools to help lift others up. My family has been so supportive I’m ready to be able to help us level up too.

I have spent many years in the hospitality industry, most of which was in the bar and restaurant world. My favorite part of those jobs was having the ability to fabricate and create something that would bring joy and happiness to a guest. I have been a valuable asset to virtually every employer I've had over this part of my career. I'm looking forward to fulfilling a similar role in the tech sector, this time building and creating tools to make business decision-making better.

After working for 4+ years as a healthcare worker, I decided to break into the tech industry and switch careers to become a software engineer. Tech has always interested me whether it be video games, social media, computers, or cell phones. I am very excited knowing that software engineering as a field is constantly growing and changing and I plan on being a lifelong learner in this career.

I am a Full-stack developer with over five years of experience developing in Ruby on Rails. I first took up web development in 2013 after exiting a startup I founded, where I worked as the product manager. After working closely with engineers, I wanted to deepen my technical skills and learn how to build products from the ground up. Over the last few years I have built and deployed multiple projects.

I started my programming path by completing Harvard's CS50 - An Introduction to Computer Science in 2019.

Having a background in design, I pivoted into full-stack development. I bring a creative yet analytical perspective to my development aiming for beautiful and easy-to-use user experiences.

Interested in building modern, full stack architectures for high demand, high availability web applications. Experience in Python, Django, JavaScript frameworks and Ruby on Rails. Proactive, detail oriented developer comfortable collaborating across the organization and empowering high value clients. Prior to my work as a developer, I spent years working in the field of motion and interactive design, giving me a deep understanding of animation and experiential principles. I produced a wide variety of projects showcasing performance capture, VR, and generative fabrication for clients such as HP, Oracle, Okta, Barneys, Li-Ning, and Resorts World. My work has been featured worldwide, and has appeared in The Verge, The New Yorker, Vogue, Communication Arts, The Creators Project, IDN, Motherboard, Brooklyn Magazine, Le Book, The Today Show, Make, South By Southwest, The Palm Springs International Film Festival, The International Film Festival on Energy, WeTheUrban, and Elektro.

I'm a fullstack developer with a focus on MERN but have used and kearney frameworks such as rails and am open to learning whatever technology your company is currently using. I'm passionate and driven and will make your company better.

I'm making a total change in my life, not only in my career but also at a personal level. I'm 36 years old and for the first time in my life I'm enjoying what I'm doing. That's why I want to pursuit this goal of make a living out of programming and land my first IT job. Before this I had several different jobs, including working for an international trade company, and just a year away of becoming a lawyer.

Full-stack software engineer with strong data background who loves to learn and mentor others.

I'm a full-stack software engineer looking for my second SE role. In my first role I worked on internal and customer-facing applications at the Church Pension Group that provides services to more than 30,000 people and institutions affiliated with The Episcopal Church. Previously, I ran two flagship developer conferences for Droidcon (world’s largest Android developer conference series) and was in charge of overall project management, developer community outreach and event logistics. And even before that, I taught English as a second language!

Prior to discovering my passion for writing code, I worked for 10+ years in the urban planning and economic development sector. Through roles in nonprofits, private firms, academic research, and consulting, I gained a deep appreciation for the power of data - which inspired me to expand my technical skillset and pursue my next career step in software development. In 2021, I started The Odin Project’s full-stack Ruby on Rails curriculum. I'm excited to contribute to growing products and teams through building and maintaining web applications.

Worked in construction for the past 8 years most recently as a project manager. Graduated from Flatiron School's Software Engineering bootcamp in November 2021. Eager to start my new career and continue my journey as a developer.
