About me

  • A graduate of Juno College's Web Development Immersive Bootcamp, I'm particularly passionate about accessibility and making the internet a more inclusive space for users of all needs.
  • I'm a really big nerd about cooking, baking, science fiction, television, history podcasts, and my three rescue dogs.
