I recently graduated from Burlington Code Academy, where I studied software development and built full stack web applications with JavaScript. I enjoyed the collaborative process of Agile development, because I find it exciting to combine my ideas with those of others to create something new. For example, my team developed a software prototype for UVM Medical Center that enables scheduling of patient rides to the hospital.
I used to schedule leisure trips during my three years at Milne Travel as a travel agent. I liked helping people create fun memories through travel. To accomplish this, I used software and conducted internet research every day. I appreciated the features of these applications that made my job easier. I became curious about how they worked, and discovered my passion for coding.
Technology gives people a sense of wonder in the same way that travel does. Whether you’re exploring a city or a website, intriguing details are everywhere. I want to apply my skills in web development to create these kinds of positive user experiences.
