About

With a solid foundation in software engineering from The Odin Project, I have honed my skills in web development and customer service. My journey began at Kodeco, where I advanced from a Member Experience Specialist to a Ruby on Rails Engineer. In these roles, I excelled in software testing, client support, and developing software plans using Ruby on Rails and PostgreSQL. I have a knack for integrating innovative business features and enhancing web application reliability. My experience as a Customer Success Engineer allowed me to collaborate with engineering and design teams to improve website functionality and aesthetics. Prior to Kodeco, I served as a Seasonal Customer Happiness Agent at Your Year of Miracles and a Freelance Customer Service Agent at Greenville Ventures, where I developed strong communication and problem-solving skills. My career is marked by a commitment to improving user experiences and delivering high-quality software solutions.
