About Me
Hello!
My name is Sara, and I am a full stack software engineer. I began my academic journey as a pre-med student, ultimately graduating with a degree in Biochemistry at UT Austin (hook 'em!). During my gap years, I worked as a high school mathematics teacher - an experience that coincided with the pandemic, which pushed me to explore virtual learning. This led me to discover programming as a powerful tool for improving the lives of those in need, whether in education, healthcare, or any other sector.
I enjoy learning new skills, exploring innovative solutions, and building user-intuitive applications that solve real world problems. When I am not coding, you can find me traveling, cooking, golfing, or visiting a local aesthetic coffeeshop.
Here are a few technologies I've been working with recently:
- Javascript (ES6+)
- React & React Native
- Redux
- TypeScript
- Next.js
- GraphQL
- Node.js
- HTML & CSS
- Styled Components
- PostgreSQL
- Sequelize
- MySQL
- MongoDB
- Jest
