My Journey...

Switching careers is a big step, and I’ve been building a solid foundation in tech. I completed a Full Stack Web Development program, gained experience in roles like front-end and back-end development, and have 15 hours of Quality Testing training.

I recently completed a six-month UX/UI Design Bootcamp, at the University of Utah where I’ve worked on multiple projects involving research, brainstorming, and creating Figma wireframes.

My growing understanding of UX/UI, combined with my problem-solving and collaborative skills, drives my passion for creating impactful tech solutions.
