About

I am a senior web developer with a background in web design. Front-end development is my bread and butter, but I won't shy away from learning new languages and infrastructures.

Over the last decade, I've had the privilege to work on some amazing dev teams and applications, learning a wide-range of languages and tech stacks.

When I'm not developing, you can find me curled up with a good book and a cup of coffee, knitting, or hanging out with my husband and our four kids (two of which are human).

Work Experience

    Senior Web Developer - Hudl

    Work with the Brand Marketing team to maintain our public-facing web entities and assist with Marketing projects and campaigns owned by the marketing managers. This also includes maintaining and enhancing our CMS platform, making it simple and efficient for a content producer to work in, as well as working with third-party platforms when the project calls for it. Light devops and SEO also come into play on a semi-regular basis.

    Web Developer - Firespring, Interactive team

    Work with a small team of developers to create web projects for clients on multiple content management systems.

Other times, it is a landing page built in Mindfire to collect user data for client campaigns.
