About Me

=profile image

Frontend Developer with a background in education and experience building dynamic web applications that unlock high impact business outcomes.

I’m a pianist and classicist turned web developer! I am detail-oriented and enjoy creating professional and beautiful websites. As owner of a private piano teaching studio, I also understand the needs of running a small-business, including the importance of having a clean and inviting online presence. Now I have made the switch to web development, where I can use my creative skills and eye for detail to build elegant and engaging websites for business owners.
