Hi, I'm Samantha, but you can call me "samantha".slice(0,3)

I'm a software engineer and am currently an instructor at App Academy, the #1 ranked bootcamp in New York, according to SwitchUp 2020. I graduated from App Academy, a full stack software engineering bootcamp with a < 3% acceptance rate and was hired upon graduation to become an instructor. I also possess a bachelors of science in Industrial Design and Apparel Design and have professional experience everywhere from 3D CAD Modeling and Engineering work for Starbucks and Panera as well as various design and fabrication work.

I am innovative, pay extreme attention to detail and enjoy working in fast paced environments. I have always been interested in programming from my passion for design as well as my logical and analytical skills. I am extremely organized, charismatic, and am great at delegating tasks and keeping people on track. I would be a great addition to any team with my detail oriented nature, work ethic, and problem solving skills. When I'm not programming, you can find me out on the town checking out the newest restaurants or seeing live music.
