About Me

Hi there! I'm Jenna, a full stack web developer with experience building out frontends with React, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and Redux, and RESTful API backends with Node.js, Express, and designing and querying relational databases with SQL.

I completed my undergrad at Colorado State University in Mathematics where I also ran on the track and cross country teams. At my last position I helped implement new features for an EdTech product - designing and building accessible, user-friendly UI/UX, working closely with backend engineers to determine API contracts and QA engineers to identify and resolve defects.

Out of curiosity and passion for the power and freedom of decentralized technologies, I'm also learning more about Web3 development in my free time.

Take a look around, reach out, let's collaborate! Don't see what you're looking for in my tech stack? Let me know! I love learning new tools and technologies.
