I am a web developer based in the Cowichan Valley of Vancouver Island, BC (between Nanaimo and Victoria and across the Salish Sea to Vancouver). I create interactive experiences from basic websites to web applications

My main focus is front-end as I enjoy making interactive experiences work. I have experience in JavaScript, Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Node and React. I am currently working with WordPress on Sage templates and using Gatsby + Headless CMS. I have been casually messing around with and making websites since 2009.

In 2017, I received a scholarship for and completed a 12-week coding bootcamp at CodeCore in Vancouver. I am one of those weirdos that excel with logic but not math (thankfully, computers are great at math!). I also hold a BA in English from Simon Fraser University just because. I also have an interest in user interface design.

Away from the computer, I am obsessed with horses (and ponies) and mostly focus on dressage. I am almost pony-sized (14.3hh) and fit ponies!

My other hobbies include starting web development tangential-projects, photography and writing but mostly wasting time on the internet (let's be honest here!).
