About me

I'm deeply curious and a passionate learner. When I'm not at the computer, I like to explore on foot and by bike - and when I'm not moving I enjoy books and baking.

With a background in FinTech/Finance operations, I leaped into Turing's Back End Development course to start a career of constant learning, building and problem solving. Coupled with my operations experience, I look forward to joining a diverse and inclusive team that is making an impact through its work.

Our app is aimed at helping people eliminate food waste in their homes by providing recipes based on ingredients that will soon spoil and contribute to food waste. We hope to inspire users to waste less, save more and have an increased awareness around their personal impact and ability to contribute by having a Zero Waste Kitchen. Recipes are connected thru the Spoonacular API, and emissions calculations thru ClimatIQ Api.
