I began serious about coding in 2022, learning Front-End Web Development before entering the MSU Apple Developer Academy and becoming an app developer. I’m passionate about finding creative solutions to problems and building impactful tech experiences that people can benefit from. Outside of coding, I spend my time doing environmental justice work, nail art, drawing or taking photos.
