about me

Hi everyone! I'm a recent juno bootcamp grad (cohort 42). I love working in teams and sharing creative ideas to help create awesome apps. From my desk to the soccer field I bring a positive attitude and an eagerness to grow and learn.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me playing some sports in the sun, reading a book or trying out a new recipe for something tasty to bake.

Different skill levels increases the amount of obstacles, and in a final setting an alien will appear with its movement randomized.
