About Me
I spent four years at the University of California Santa Barbara studying a full range of literary historical periods, national and transnational literatures in English and minoring in Linguistics. As of recently, I have completed an intensive 480+ hour Software Engineer Immersive program at General Assembly where I have built several full-stack applications using JavaScript, HTML/CSS, Python, React, Express.js, Node.js, MongoDB, AWS, and Django. I aim to take these experiences with me to continue to explore the intersections of language and technology.
