My resume/CV
For the past few years I've worked primarily in data platforms, though my first jobs in tech were in full-stack web development in PHP, jQuery, and WordPress. Prior to that, I taught myself to code by making little WordPress sites for myself. If you'd like to get in touch, see the about page on this site.
