My background became obvious to me when I was interested in helping people. I grew up under a mom who was an RN. So helping people was my drive throughout my careers. I started in customer service and retail sales launching myself into a store management position. I used my creative side as a musician to enter into graphics and code as I loved to play PC games in the late 90s. Building web sites in the early 2000s and learning more about code, server side and design architecture, I advanced into Web Master. By 2007 I worked in front end development for a few years working with Bootstrap and Foundation's responsive code and decided that knowing what user's pain points were more important to the design while at Expedia. That was the start of my Product Design and Dev, Product Management, UI Interaction Designer, and UX Designer. I still love helping people and users striving to make applications as easy as possible for the user. I'm still learning as much as possible as technology changes.
