Iām a software engineer, artist, and organizer but titles aside- I just care. My work has always been about people before anything else because I believe everyone should have the tools they need to thrive and succeed. Technology has an incredible capacity to transform lives so I aim to use my skills to break down barriers in places that have been historically inaccessible for marginalized groups.
Currently:
Working at Resilient Coders as an Expert in Residence, mentoring students going through an intensive 20-week bootcamp where they learn Javascript, Node, and React
Coding community/art-based applications and creating tutorials
Creating websites and other digital remedies for non-profits, artists, and wellness practicioners
“I had the pleasure of hiring Ellie to create a website for my business; I realized that outsourcing would make a better use of my time, and I approached them as my first choice. As usual, Ellie did not disappoint. After I communicated my vision, Ellie went above and beyond and did not deliver on my expectations, but instead far surpassed them. What could have been a simple front-end project, Ellie turned into a full-stack web app with features that will significantly reduce the time and effort I will need to maintain my operations. I cannot communicate how immensely grateful for their work, nor how pleased I am with this project. Ellie's ability to anticipate even the unspoken needs of both the business and consumer lended to an exceptional execution of user experience.
I am most confident that Ellie can achieve absolutely anything to which they set their mind. They possess the competencies necessary for any full-stack role: on a team or solo, managing or supporting, coding or instructing. The pleasure would truly be yours to hire them.”
