I recently graduated from Dev Bootcamp and am now looking for my first job as a junior developer, whether that be via an apprenticeship, internship, or full-time position.I am currently working on personal and paired projects, trying to learn new frameworks and technologies.A recent graduate from the School of Architecture at UIUC, I have a passion for design and innovation and hope to find work with a company where I can make beautiful and meaningful things.

Dev Bootcamp is a 19-week intensive training program for aspiring web-developers, specializing in Ruby, Rails, HTML5, CSS, Test Driven Development, Object Oriented Javascript (AJAX, JQuery), Git and Source Control, Heroku and Agile Development.The first 9 weeks of the curriculum are remote, while the second 9 weeks are an immersive in-class experience. The also addresses intra- and interpersonal strategies to fostering optimal learning and teamwork environments.

Here I shadowed and worked alongside project managers for the Bank of America Account. I sat in on/ took notes for meetings regarding planning for new projects. I wrote up summaries for these meetings and kept all involved parties up to date on what was going on. I dealt with change orders and RFI's, and helped organize project information during a major company wide switch from one data management system to another.

The most accurate description of my responsibilites at MBA was that I wore many hats. I created 3d models and renderings for clients. I attended client meetings, taking notes about their needs/ wants to make sure our design reflected these. I assisted in design sketches of current projects. I aided in the production of working documents. I designed presentation brochures for clients and final projects. I measured existing sites, input the recorded dimensions and drew the buildings. My personal favorite, I even designed custom furniture ( eg. a surfboard bench/ trunk, that rested on a CNC cut plywood wave )
