About me

Junior Software Developer and Graphic Design graduate with experience in e-commerce photography shoots. I started coding for fun (with HTML and CSS) after admiring the work of web developers on Tumblr. Through trial, error and pattern recognition I tried to emulate different aspects in my own blog. I became obsessed with using code that could express messages visually and functionally through user interaction. I eventually took the step to further my learning in General Assembly’s Software Engineering Immersive course where I learnt the fundamentals of languages and frameworks such as JavaScript, Python, Node.js, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Django, Express and Mongoose. I enjoy provoking positive user responses by creating immersive experiences and communicating ideas that are not often discussed. I’m looking for junior opportunities that will allow me to continue to learn and to be able to mix my creative, design skills with software development. ———————————— Graphic Design & Visual Arts professional skilled in Adobe Creative Suite with a Bachelor of Arts - BA focused in Graphic Design Communication from University of the Arts London. ———————————— Photography assistant professional with e-commerce experience—lifestyle and cutout.
