    Achievements

    Got two degrees in four years, went to Caltech, and have created more unique and weird projects for work than anyone I know. I have extensive experience in full stack web development, UX, and app development, as well as game design. I've designed and built a toy that scans into mobile devices and contains its own customizable storybooks. I've created a tongue scanning app. I've built, from scratch, a recurring subscription system which our accountant said was by far the best she's ever worked with.
