About
I am a full stack web developer with an emphasis on front end development. I excel in understanding and writing Javascript code to improve a website’s functionality and have worked collaboratively with other developers to meet project goals. I have experience in an educational setting, including the training and supervision of professional staff, project and budget management, and workspace collaboration. I am a creative thinker with well-developed problem-solving abilities, and I can communicate in both technical and non-technical terms. I have strong customer service experience to supplement my technical skills.
