About me
Hi, I'm Darby! I'm pivoting from a career in laboratory diagnostics and research. During the pandemic, I worked in a clinical microbiology lab and saw first-hand rapid innovation take place for diagnosing covid-19. I was intrigued by the software aiding the science and decided to dive into learning more. As a laboratory professional, I gained several skills such as adaptability, quality assurance, pattern recognition, teamwork, and attention to detail. These skills have helped me be a successful and effective engineering team member. Software engineering has limitless opportunities for growth and learning, which is why I am so excited to be entering this field.
