a Web Developer
I live in Kansas City, I have 2 beautiful daughters and an amazingly supportive husband. For most of my professional career I've worked for a non profit that is changing the lives of children in poverty around the world. I received my bachelor's of science from Northwest Missouri State University in 2005.
I am currently enrolled in KU's Full Stack Web Developer program with an expected graduation date of March 17, 2018. I've always had an interest in coding and I decided to jump in head first. This is an intensive program that teaches both client and server side of web developement. It's a world of endless learning and I'm loving every minute of it.
