Web
Developer and
UI/UX Designer

Hi! I am an undergrad (graduating this may)student at the University of Montana majoring in computer science with an emphasis in software engineering. I've loved coding and the idea of working in tech since I discovered what cs was. That desire has only grown and fueled my career so far.
I worked in tech support for a few years before moving to my current software delopment internship where I focus on the frontend and use React. Resume
About a year ago I was introducded into web design and UI/UX. I fell in love with the creativity aspect and started focusing more on design work. Doing so has made me want to pursue a career in UI/UX design and continue practicing my skills.
In my free time I enjoy reading, designing, running. I often find inspiration and motivation in the books I read and this helps me grow personally and keep an open mind.

This is where I can talk about getting inspiration from Pinterest, colleagues, and youtubers I follow. I began my journey thinking I wanted to focus on hard coding and software development, but over the lasy year I've found myself drawn more to the design side of things.
