there’s a weird number of parallels between transitioning and software development
you spend a lot of time trying to figure out what the problem even is, let alone trying to solve it
there’s a lot of reading old forum posts hoping someone else had the same problem you do and solved it already
a very serious company boasting about implementing carousels, a widely disliked UI pattern that is bad at what its supposed to do
omg where?!

Semi-regular reminder that I am looking for work! If you need a front-end developer with extensive experience in accessibility, design systems, React and Vue, I'm your girl!
