I'm a former Speech and Drama teacher now turned full stack software developer after a career pivot, looking for my next opportunity. I recently graduated from Dev Academy Aotearoa, where I learnt to build fullstack software applications in a simulated Agile work environment.
Problem solving has always been at the heart of everything I do. Earlier this year I decided to take the plunge into coding after many years of interest in tech.
Iβm now hugely passionate about building fullstack applications, collaborating with other developers, learning new programming languages and frameworks, and sharing my knowledge. I thrive in fast-paced, challenging environments and canβt wait to contribute value to a development team!
For my final group project at Dev Academy! I had a blast collaborating with my team, and embraced the struggle of stretching my knowledge even further with Auth0, Multer, and many-to-many relational databases.
In my spare time you`ll find me tearing apart and putting stuff back together (inanimate things), getting lost somewhere, or wandering the new places.
Open to work or collaboration!
Im currently looking for a developer position or developer adjacent in Auckland or beyond.
