About Me

I am a full-stack developer with a passion for designing and developing websites that are responsive, accessible, beautiful, and scalable. While I was working hard in grad school to make a small contribution to our knowledge of the universe, I was also expanding my skills as a software developer. I have completed the Master's program and I am excited now to get a job that involves designing and developing industry-level websites.
