Informatics Junior at University of Washington

I am a passionate front-end web developer whose strength is in bringing technical skills and design ideas together to create user-friendly web applications. I found myself as a highly motivated, open-minded individual who can succeed in multi-cultural, challenging, and fast-paced environments.

I have a strong passion for developing mobile-first, user-friendly websites. Through my previous internship experiences, I’ve developed my collaboration skills and learned how to enhance the user experience to satisfy consumer requirements in real-world business situations. My exposure to these experiences has shaped me to be a more astute thinker and motivated me to explore user experience and interaction design further. I hope to utilize my web development skills to develop well-organized web applications and to improve client relationships and business performance in various industries.
