After leading a retail sales team for a fashion jewelry manufacturer for almost 8 years, I wanted to find something more challenging and fun. Quite honestly, it was the scariest decision I've ever made to make a career change but it's been all worth it so far. Fast forward to today, I've graduated from Devmountain's immersive web development boot camp and have learned a great deal about the MERN stack and cannot wait to dive into other tech stacks. I've also learned so much about myself and what I'm capable of doing. I am very excited for my future in tech and will constantly be pushing my limits and always be learning. My goals are to create amazing animated UI designs and produce thoughtful, dynamic user experiences using smart and clean code. Being around art and music growing up, I've always been more on the creative side so I have a great interest in front-end development and UX/UI design.
