I am a full stack developer who’s proficient in HTML, CSS and Javascript. As a former flight attendant and purser, I have 24 years of customer service and leadership experience. I’m looking to put my exceptional communication and teamwork skills to use as a developer. I look forward to working as part of a team of engineers to create quality software through collaboration with an emphasis on customer service. I have experience creating interactive web applications using React, as well as building APIs with Express and PostgreSQL.
