I learn fast: I started teaching myself Ruby on Rails and associated technologies in January 2011. I interned with Upstream Agile in mid-2011, and by November 2011 I started a position as a junior developer at mediapeers, where I quickly progressed to a key member of the team. When we changed our tech stack, I moved to focus on the frontend, where implementing designs precisely and elegantly gives me great satisfaction.

Before moving to Germany, I worked as a professional stage manager, where I honed my skills in scheduling, organization, and communication before eventually leaving the field in search of something with better hours. Web development was something I explored briefly in college, and I'm really glad I've come back to it.
