Welcome to my portfolio, where I showcase all of my personal coding projects I've created over the years.

Frogger Clone Game

The title says it all; it's a simple game designed to mimic the icon frogger game, but on a much smaller scale.

GitHub

GitHub

Quantum(Test Website)

I built this site as an exercise and also while showing a sibling how to code in HTML and CSS, and figured it was worthy of placing on my portfolio.

GitHub

Responsive Contact Form

A simple HTML and CSS contact form. Note: There is no back-end functionality to this, as I only built the front-end as an exercise in HTML and CSS.

A bit about me...

Coming from the automotive finance industry as a clerical worker, web development was something that I always knew about but never bothered diving into. It wasn't until I found myself at work being asked "where do you see yourself in 10 years?" and realized that I had no answer, and it hit me that I would likely still be in the role I was currently in, where I was unhappy and not finding fulfillment in my work.

That's when I decided to go home, pick up my busted laptop, and decided to give the whole "coding" thing another look. I quickly realized that to be a developer, you don't need a fancy 4 year CS degree; you just need the drive to learn, the ability to self-motivate, and...well, a computer with access to the web. I quickly realized that I enjoyed the feeling of building things and solving problems; it challenged me, and I found that exciting. So for the next 2 years, I used everything from YouTube, to Udemy, to FreeCodeCamp and various other resources to piece together the skills I have now, which landed me my first development job for a small dental marketing company. I continue to grow every day, and have come to learn a lot of hard lessons about this field, but ultimately I can't imagine having a career doing anything else.

If you're interested in discussing possibly recruiting me to your team, I would love to talk! Feel free to reach out below, and I will get back to you as soon as possible. And thanks for checking out my portfolio!
