Hi, I'm Abigail
Software Developer
I build sites & apps.
My focus is React & Next.js with a side of Python.
About
I’m a detail-oriented developer with an enthusiasm for creating functional, accessible, and visually engaging applications. My journey began in front-end development with React and soon expanded to full-stack work, including an intensive Python course that refined my back-end skills and gave me hands-on experience as a Scrum master. Earning a distinction there was a proud moment, marking my transition into more advanced projects.
After taking time to travel across the Americas, I'm now refreshed and ready to launch tech my career. I've broadened my skill set with Next.js, cloud computing, DevOps, and a deepened focus on web design and accessibility. I'm excited to contribute to a team where I can build on these skills, delivering high-impact, user-friendly solutions for a diverse audience.
Projects
The final team project in my Software course. App that generates personalised bed-time stories based on user input. Using Flask endpoints and mySQL database.
A blog documenting my travel across the Americas. Using Google Maps API to show my journey and current location, with Mailchimp API for email subscription.
Weather App that shows the current weather and forecast for the next 5 days. Using the OpenWeather API and geolocation with timezone-accurate sunrise & sunset times.
A retro style dummy chat app created as a birthday gift with deep fake celebrity audio messages.
