About me
I'm a software engineer who's highly motivated to expand my skillset and knowledge by working with a collaborative team that is pursuing excellence.
After turning down a scholarship to physical therapy school, I explored a variety of opportunities from wilderness therapy in Arizona, to tour guiding in Alaska, and on to managing a fitness studio and photographing weddings in Colorado.
My diverse background has given me the strengths of:
- Adaptability
- Quick to learn and master new skills
- Interpersonal skills and customer service
- Leadership and management
- Strong accountability and ownership for my work
- Critical thinking
In software, I've discovered the field that fits my love of taking on new challenges, continuously learning, and working with a team. I'm excited to do high quality work and develop my efficiency and effectiveness as a developer while working on software that makes a positive impact.
