Full Stack Software Developer

ABOUT ME

I am an attorney by training and have spent the last five years working for state government.

In my position, I worked both with IT professionals and on my own to create solutions for managing data more effectively. My work on these projects prompted an interest in software development, which led me to Nashville Software School.

I am interested in using code to make web applications that can increase the ease and efficiency of completing complex tasks while improving the overall user experience.
