About me

I am a software engineer with an extensive background in quality and localization, with a specialty in front end development. I love being close to the user experience, and always found it frustratingly difficult to decipher and effectively test some of the more modern and powerful front end frameworks/libraries. So, after two unexpected layoffs in two years, it was time to apply to Turing to help me learn that identified gap in my skillset and to better weather those unfortunate tides in an apparent fickle industry.

What's next: Before/after graduating from Turing in September, I'll be looking to add that "next-factor" to an organization really looking to provide their users a world-class experience. I aim to be the leader and expert your team is looking for to create industry standards of quality software.
