I volunteer as a Star Mentor and GitHub team member to the Zero to Mastery community where I help and support fledgling programmers.
When I was a stay-at-home mom, I started teaching myself to code - and I never looked back. 💜
I enjoy React.js, TypeScript, Go, Vim, Docker, mobile development with React Native, learning new programming languages, pen & paper role-playing games, and writing about it.
I’m interested in conflict resolution and trained as a mediator at Fernuniversität Hagen.
All my coding-related writing is available on https://www.rockyourcode.com.
You can find selected articles on Dev.to as well.
I gave a talk at the Softwerkskammer Ruhrgebiet about writing type-safe React applications with Reason. This talk stems from my experiences in learning ReasonML in public.
The repository and slides are available on GitHub.

A web application using Nim and Jester. Nim is a statically compiled systems programming language. The app was developed using Docker, Docker Compose, nginx and GitLab CI for continuous integration, testing, and deployment.
I enjoy applying new-found knowledge to practical projects. This URL shortener stemmed from my wish to solidify my programming skills with Nim.

Reason is an alternative sytnax for OCaml and allows you to write expressive and 100% type safe code. The app shows how to manage state with the useContext hook.
I was interested in learning ReasonML in 2019. This web application showcases my journey in learning the language and tool-chain in public.
I’ve written a series of blog posts about how to create this app on dev.to:
