My love for programming can be tied back as early as 5 years old. I played and experimented by pulling apart and gluing back together electronics. Today, the same curiosity to learn and experiment has led me to my current career path. The passion for learning I have cultivated through my life and devotion to create tools that will help people to solve problems are the reason I am applying today for the position of Junior Software Developer at Ibotta.
As a hospitality professional, I embraced teamwork and collaborated with peers to meet deadlines in a fast-paced and stressful environment. I had the opportunity to supervise over 15 people and directed production workflows to meet the company's goals. As a hospitality consultant for a nonprofit, I have designed and implemented work processes for specific use cases. Through my time at Turing in a remote and project-based environment with over 12000 hrs of training, I had been able to hone my communication, technical and self-teaching skills. As a first-generatio
This gist contains a short assignment I'd like everyone to complete before our formal lesson. The prework involves reading some of the React Router documentation, and will allow us to keep the lesson more hands on.

Data Model is the piece of data that defines the status of the code itself and should be protected as the source of truth. Our DOM should reflect our DataModel all the time.
Library: It is a collection of code that can be used over and over to write code, usually function or methods belonging to a library can be called anywhere in our code, thus making our code less bounded to the rules on “how to write the code using a library”. I like to think of a library as pieces of code I can call whenever and have a little bit more freedom when creating a feature for web applications. Framework: it is a collection of defined rules on which we build code, we can also make use of the defined methods or functions over and over. However, frameworks are bound to a more strict set of rules such as requiring specific pieces of data to work properly. An example of thi
In a few sentences, explain what the project was and the scope of your work. Imagine explaining your answer to a technical recruiter or a developer who you'd potentially be interviewing with.
As a group Kristi Miller, Demaceo Howard and me, were assigned with the task to recreate an application that would be able to create idea cards that would persist when the page reloaded. As a team we made use of concepts such as Data model
, Local storage
and DOM
manipulation.

My partner Tim Keresey and me, were given the task to create an application that would be able to create, save and display random motivational posters. We prioritized the use of the data model as the source of truth and manipulation of the data model by creating specific seperate files that would keep our code organized and more readable.
While working on this project we made sure to refer to our data model to display the information we needed on the DOM. I spent most of the time researching the best practices as well as rubber ducking my ideas with mentors and . I made sure to come prepare to my team meetings by trying the code on my own and then talk about my ideas.
What was the greatest challenge you had as a group?
As I created this application I was required to make use of HTML to create the game's content. CSS was use to style the applicationa and JavaScript to access the data model and manipulate the DOM. A clear understanding of this concepts were crucial to set up the structure of the program created. I was able to have the initial template using HTML and CSS early on the project.
