Personal Learning Goals:
Problem Statement: To help make the search for volunteering agencies/opportunities for teenagers easier and more fun!
Market Research: Outline the key insights from your research, including: Competition:
High school students must earn service hours to graduate. In fact, at the last school I taught, students had to do a total of 160 hours of community service, which is a lot! Schools provide students with databases of places to volunteer but they still would moan and groan about not being able to find an organization. Resources like maps or websites exist but they don't seem to be utilized by teens. I want to create an app that essentially makes the search a little bit more fun for them to find volunteering opportunities! Another problem is that finding organizations that specifically allow underage volunteers can be difficult. This would be a resource that would filter for agencies that students already know accept teens (as long as they have parental consent of course).
At Ada, I've found that I thrive in collaborative environments. I enjoy dialogue, being apart of a team, and puzzling through complex logic-based and engineering challenges. I have enjoyed the weeks when our curriculum has simulated Agile working environments and we worked in a highly focused sprint manner on small teams to create complex and dynamic programs.
I am community and social-justice minded. I am an innovative, enthusiastic, and curious learner. I hope to have the opportunity during my internship to work closely with a supportive mentor and/or team to optimize learning opportunities and discover new skills, interests, and strengths in the frameworks and languages I have yet to be exposed. I take initiative and ownership of my learning process, believe that I can find the answers to any question that comes my way, and am confident that the skills that I bring from my time as an educator, as well as the lessons I've learned during my time as a student @ Ada, are invaluable and ones that will greatly

After a formative experience that opened my eyes to the community-building power of code, while teaching technical skills in Zambia, I left my career as an English teacher to pursue software development. A creative thinker inspired by the power of imagination and innovation who is motivated to discover ways to bridge cultural gaps and actively contribute to the community and world we live in.
Seeking an engineering role where I will be encouraged to explore the intersectionality of developers and customers, to problem-solve collaboratively, and to write intuitive and thoughtful code that will improve the developer's experience.
I have experience coding in Ruby, Ruby on Rails, React/React Native, JavaScript, HTML5/CSS, and Java but am excited and willing to learn new tech stacks!
