About me
I'm a creative problem solver, who loves to make things, all sorts of things. I used to think of myself as a jack of all trades, spending years veering between event and commercial/film production. As the pandemic hit and I realized I was no longer fulfilled and that I was in fact not a jack of all trades, but an incredibly organized manager that had a gift for organizing projects, the medium didn't matter. I also realized that I was ready for a new challenge which led me to software development. Coding allows me to combine my logically organized mind with the creativity of problem-solving, in a short time at Turing I have had the time to combine all of my previous skills with my ability to create applications and solve issues as they arise. Now I'm ready to take my old skills and newfound skills into a field where I can keep creating and making things.
