About Me

Hi. I'm Ashley. Nice to meet ya.

I've spent the last four years working at tech startups in the Kansas City area, doing everything from operations to project management to quality assurance testing. During that time, I've been fortunate to work with talented engineers who inspired me to learn more about software development. I desired more time to focus on my education, which led me to Portland, where I studied Javascript and Android development at Epicodus in the fall of 2015.

I have been working on a Django application with a focus on front-end web development at a marketing startup in Overland Park, Kansas, since January 2016.

I love working on small teams with passionate people who want to create great software. If that sounds like your team, feel free to contact me.
