About me

Hi, I’m Emily! I’m a recently self-taught front-end developer with 7 years of experience in product management and design. I’ve worked at companies big and small, on new and existing products, but the one constant in my career has been that I have felt most engaged with my work when solving technical problems with great teams. In my first role as a developer I have had the privilege of doing just that, while being able to draw upon the strong foundation in product and design that I have built in previous roles.

My background in product and design, degree from a top engineering school, years of learning from and working alongside world-class engineers, and experience with all parts of the development process from ideation through launch and iteration make me a unique candidate for front-end roles. What I lack in years of formal coding experience I make up for in a strong product sense, an eye for (and lots of experience with) product design, an instinct for making technical tradeoff decisions thoughtfully and holistically, expertise in rapid testing and user research, and an agility and adaptability that is imperative in a fast-paced tech environment. I love what I do and bring enthusiasm for both being great at it and making work a great place to be. Don't hesitate to reach out to me! I'm looking forward to meeting you.
