About Me

Code

My passion is learning and improving. Coding provides me with the perfect vehicle for that expression of myself. There is always so much more to learn, and so many things to improve upon. I enjoy finding solutions to problems, learning new skills, and improving current ones. I love to build things.

JavaScript

I love programming with JavaScript. I have an excellent handle on DOM scripting with native JavaScript and can also use jQuery if needed. I can use AJAX to work with JSON and APIs with JavaScript or jQuery. I am currently learning more about functional programming, object-oriented programming, as well as diving deeply in React. React has opened up a whole new world to me and every day I get excited to learn more about it.

CSS

I am very fluent in CSS3 and Sass, and love to build layouts and styles using them. I am particularly fond of animating properties to create simple UI enhancements or large and complex animations. I am very good with Flexbox and am currently learning Grid, but I can also use backwards compatible methods for layout using floats and display modes. I take a responsive, "Mobile-First" approach to my CSS development and aim for a great user experience on every device from mobile up to large screen displays.

Me

Aside from coding, I love animals, and especially my two dogs - Arwen and Moya. I am passionate about fitness and nutrition, I am a multi-instrument musician, I love sci-fi and fantasy, anything to do with astronomy and space, hiking and being in nature, reading, and listening to podcasts.
