About
Hi, I'm Colleen!
I'm a front end developer with a desire to create and build delightful products that empower and inspire people.
Coding always fascinated me. I thought a software engineering career path was out of reach until I used a rather clunky accounting program at a previous job. I wondered, “Who built this software? How can I become someone who develops and codes delightful products people enjoy using?” And thus the coding journey began.
I’m interested in public sector (or adjacent) software development roles. Government agencies offer community support, but need a technological boost to increase access and participation among residents. As a Certified Scrum Master (CSM) and Product Owner (CSPO), I also appreciate agile methodologies and want to build splendid software products within a scrum environment.
I’m also a local government nerd (Leslie Knope's character resonates with me), Premier League soccer fan, and runner.
