About Me

Hello! I'm Emily, a mechanical engineer in Metro Detroit. I've worked at an aerospace company since my graduation from the University of Utah in 2016. I love to code, and am practicing my JavaScript skills while teaching myself Java.

When I'm not working or coding, you'll find me spending time outdoors or visiting my home state of Utah. I love going backpacking and paddleboarding, and hope to someday volunteer as a web developer for a nonprofit that shares my passions.
