About me

Profile Image

Hi! I'm Brittany, an American Full-Stack Developer currently exploring Granada, Spain.

I am super passionate about animals, especially dogs and elephants, travel, good food, and crafting simple and beautiful web applications. My interest in web development started when I taught myself HTML & CSS for fun while at University. Five years later, I decided to enroll in Microverse, an online school for remote developers, to delve deeper into the world of web development.
