I spent the last couple years freelancing as a web/UI/graphic designer. As I grew out of WYSIWYG tools I rediscovered my childhood passion for coding. Now I’m coming to the Flatiron School so I can hard pivot from marketing/design into development, and start getting comfortable with pair programming. On the weekends I'm usually out at trap/dubstep shows, EDM festivals in the summer.

Professionally, I've been working in hospitality management for the past few years. I went to college to study computer science but I dropped out after the first semester because I wanted to pursue music for a little and come back to this later. Now I'm back! Into techno/house, building music electronics, good food / beer. Love video games.
