About
With two years of experience under my belt as a junior developer, I proudly graduated from DigitalCrafts' full-time web development program. Technology has always intrigued me, driving my desire to understand and create through coding. When I step away from the screen, I'm often behind a drum kit—either learning a new rhythm or teaching others the art of drumming.
