About Me

As a recent graduate of Juno College of Technology, I am ready (and excited) to join the tech industry where I can continue to learn and grow, alongside other talented developers. I am an expert communicator who loves creative problem solving. In my spare time, I like to garden, play ukulele, and spend time with friends.

Prior to coding, I worked as a teacher and a floral designer. If you would like to read more about my coding journey, feel free to check out this blog post I wrote.

That's What Who Said?

A fun quiz game I made with React. Users test their memory of the award-winning sitcom "The Office" and try to guess which character said these hilarious quotes.
