Hello! I'm Ari...
I am a Front-End Developer with experience in Fullstack Web and iOS development. I worked at finish'd, Inc. as a Frontend (UI/UX) Software Development Intern and redesigned their app's UI. I graduated from the College of Engineering and Applied Science at the University of Colorado Boulder with a BS in Creative Technology and Design with a minor in Computer Science. For my senior capstone project, I was the sole developer on a backpacking meal planner app.I graduated with Magna Cum Laude and two graduation awards from the College of Engineering and Applied Science: The Perserverance Award and The Community Impact Award.
My background combines creativity with engineering, focusing on critical thinking, problem-solving, design, and creative production. Some of my coursework included Mobile Application Development, Advanced Front-End Web Development, Human-Computer Interaction, Intro to Virtual Reality, Tiny Games Creation, Principles of Programming Languages, and Computer Systems.
During my time at CU Boulder, I've refined my ability to embrace constructive feedback and approach problem-solving from diverse perspectives. Beyond coursework, I've delved deep into my passions; I joined a university club, Blueprint Boulder, which builds apps and websites for nonprofits. I was the head of front-end design for a team developing a database for a nonprofit, and the VP of Nonprofit Coordination.
I was born and raised in Boulder, Colorado. When not working, I enjoy gardening, building apothecaries, embroidering, volunteering, and playing with my dog!
