Profile: https://flows.cv/jannine

As a fullstack developer interested in building interactive, immersive user experiences, I enjoy building data-centric tools that solve problems and create a direct positive impact for the end user, be it a single customer, internal team, or large organization.

Before becoming a software engineer, I analyzed statistical health data for academic clinical trials and public health initiatives. Desiring more variety and a faster paced environment, I made a career switch as a Community Relations Manager at seed-stage food-on-demand app startup. I wore many hats and enjoyed how much I was learning everyday about web design and development. After the startup closed due to lack of funding, I took a deep dive into learning to code. I became immersed in how frontend and backend development convene to create a product that delights and solves user problems.

I enjoy work that's challenging and combines my varied industry experiences, analytical skills, and desire to build amazing user experiences as a fullstack developer. I am eager to learn and explore new technologies and libraries and apply my specialized understanding of UI development to new projects.
