Hello, my name is Gatina! I am a full stack developer focused on the MEAN stack with a passion for creating exceptional user experiences for my clients. I am a great communicator who can motivate groups, foster collaboration and translate ideas between individuals of all technical backgrounds. I am passionate about development processes, coding standards, iterative product development and open source technology.
My background in recruiting within the IT industry has increased my intellectual curiosity and has driven me to progressively develop my knowledge of all types of software. As a developer, this drive pushes me to continuously learn, experiment, and build applications that will create positive change and that people will enjoy!
