Hi, I’m Jackie. I am a full stack JavaScript developer and lifelong learner currently residing in Alexandria, Virginia.
I spent three years building WordPress websites for mortgage lending companies before enrolling in Thinkful's JavaScript Engineering program. After graduating, I got started in mobile app development with React Native for the Medicaid mobile team at Elevance Health (formerly Anthem, Inc.).
I love to build fast, responsive, engaging websites and apps that provide simplicity for users. When I'm not working on a development project, you might find me reading, practicing photography or hiking with my rhodesian ridgeback.

Chiclet

- Description: Chiclet is a monthly - yearly planner. Users can add special events, goal deadlines, or focus themes to the months and the app provides a view of their plans for the entire year. Users can update existing items and delete items. Alternatively, the app can be used as an accomplishment record keeper rather than a planner of future milestones. Either way, users have an interactive bird's eye view of the year.
