Frontend Enthusiast

Hello. I'm Kerry, and Ifrontend development.

2019

My coding journey began in 2019 when I started attending a 10 month coding boot camp called Bloc (now called Chegg Skills). I graduated in October and scored my first engineering job a month later. This was working for Skylla, a very small robotics startup (7 people) where I helped build UI's for robot navigation and mapping.

2020

The start of the pandemic, and also the start of working from home. This was a game changer for me and the realization that I am more productive and happier working remotely.

2021

In August, I got my current job working for Olo, an industry leader in providing online ordering experiences for restaurants. We work with 700+ brands and process on average 2 million orders per day.

Now

I am working on a team of 3 frontend devs, where we build the UI for Olo's newest product, Olo Pay. This is an end-to-end payment solution, providing our brands with payment processing, reporting, and fraud prevention. I am currently building out onboarding solutions for our customers to sign onto Olo Pay. Most of our repos are very modern React apps, keeping me on top of the latest advancements. I am also no stranger to working in more mature codebases, as I am frequently helping out in some of Olo's oldest Ember apps built 15+ years ago.

My biggest passion is traveling. I've traveled across the US and to 12 countries so far, and the travel bucket list grows each day! I live with my husband Jeremie, and the most adorable Burmese cat you could ever meet 😻.

Please feel free to check out my resume!
