ABOUT

Self-motivated professional who is enthusiastic in building applications. A military widow, a real estate investor, a polyglot, and a full time coder.

I’ve always sought out opportunities and challenges that are meaningful to me. Although my professional path has taken many twists and turn - before my husband's death I was a military housewife and after that I came back to school while working full time to build up my career.

As a web & mobile application developer, I enjoy using my obsessive attention to detail, my unequivocal love for making things, and my mission-driven work ethic to literally change the world. That's why I’m excited to make a big impact at a high growth company.
