I'mA Software Developer.

Hello! I'm Amber, a software developer based in Nashville, TN who enjoys building things that live on the internet.

My first foray into coding began at the age of 13. I spent hours upon hours clumsily picking through code attempting to interpret the lines and lines of abstruse text. The ability to create with this strange new language fascinated me. Years later, during my freshman year of college, I enrolled in my first computer science course. While this course served as my first official introduction to the true magic of coding, my path ultimately led me elsewhere. However, I eventually found my way back to computer programming. Everyday, I rediscover how challenging, yet fun, writing code can be.

One of the most enthralling aspects of software development is that it sits at the intersection of the creative and the analytical. Oftentimes, I have been surprised to find unexpected connections between the two. There is an immensely satisfying and fulfilling reward to finding the solution to a problem that first seemed unsolvable. Through my journey, I have learned to think both creatively and analytically. Amid the challenging aspects of coding is the prospect of honing my natural talent to take a logical, analytical approach to problem-solving while incorporating creativity. As I grow as a developer, I strive to learn how to better problem-solve and ask the right questions.
