What are the values that will drive your job search?
I'm looking for companies that are mission driven. Any company that describes the changes they're trying to make first will be ones that I look into.
What are your goals for your job search?
My goal is to find a company that I'll feel fulfilled and challenged working at in either Austin, TX or here in Denver.
What kind of role do you see yourself pursuing in your job search?
Any front end dev roles - if their stack includes React for the front end, even better. I'm not going to be too picky as far as my role for my first gig goes. As long as I get the opportunity to build helpful things and learn, I'll be happy.

Great work here! I like the simple format of your resume. When you write about things, quantify them so those viewing your resume understand the scope of your work. If you are targeting Austin as well as Denver, start building a network there. You have picked some pretty stable industries!
