As a child who loved to play with Lego, my gravitation to web development out of college was a natural evolution. I marveled at how the browser was like a blank canvas that could be brought to life in infinite ways with HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
Early on in my career I became interested in graphic design. I could build web pages but I also wanted to know how to improve the visual appeal of them. So I took a six-month, full-time design bootcamp that introduced me to the world of design, where I developed a portfolio of print and digital projects.
From here I enjoyed a brief stint as a contract visual designer. However I returned to web development after discovering that my true passion lies in blending the two worlds — coding with a creative edge. Currently I'm highly interested in roles like Design Engineer, Design Technologist or UX Engineer.
