I'm a recent Dev Bootcamp graduate and former story-teller and massage therapist who is excited to jump into the world of web development. I have experience with Ruby on Rails, Sinatra,HTML, CSS, and JQuery. I am currently looking for new full time or contract positions in the Chicago area.My experiences before and during Dev Bootcamp have given me both the technical skills necessary to work as a developer and the soft skills necessary to work with a team. Dev Bootcamp taught me to quickly pick up new tools, including languages and frameworks. Both Dev Bootcamp and my previous experiences in management, bodywork, customer service and equipment installation gave me the ability to empathize with team members, effectively lead a team of disparate personalities, and communicate my ideas in clear and direct language. I have traveled with my service in the United States Navy and trips to visit my family abroad, leading me to be curious about traditions, lifestyles and cultures. Please feel free to email, text, or call me for availability.
