Coding
I've been coding for over 5 years. I started with humble beginnings, learning to code in JavaScript to work with Discord's API and making bots. My first introduction to code was a freeCodeCamp article outlining how to use Discord.js, and I had no prior knowledge of a VS Code, Node.js or even a Terminal!
After making a couple bots and becoming fluent in JavaScript, I moved into websites for the bots, like dashboards and landing pages. I learned EJS, HTML, and CSS. This is what really started my love for UI/UX design, and I've followed that love all the way through React, Next.js, TailwindCSS, shadcn/ui, Figma, and more.
Through this journey, I've has the amazing opportunity to work with Replit as a community ambassador ("Replit Rep"). This allowed me to meet many amazing designers and developers, ultimately teaching me how to collaborate and work on code with other people remotely. I also worked with many clients through Replit Bounties.
Today, I mainly design websites for me, school, or clients. I work freelance (contact me!) from my home in Portland, Oregon, while also being a high school student. I use Figma to brainstorm ideas, Next.js to build them, and Vercel to deploy them.
