I am a very self-driven learner and enjoy building apps in my spare time. I've only started learning the processes and tools behind web development but have grown tremendously as a coder over the past year. I hope to one day become a full-stack engineer (with an emphasis on front-end). I love the pace and culture behind start-ups but am interested in exploring opportunities in industry also.
