Hi there -- I'm ✨ Mai! πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈβœ¨

🌱 I’m a software engineer and returning graduate at Techtonica with a passion for creating accessible features for people with disabilities.
πŸ’– I created a dating platform that is exclusively for creating events centered on dating and meeting people in real life.
✨ Follow my software engineering journey here: Mai's Substack✨

About Me

  • πŸŽ“ Transitioned from higher education/nonprofit sector, with a focus on disability advocacy.
  • πŸ’¬ Ask me about JavaScript, React, Node.js, and accessibility in tech.
  • 🌍 Based in Brooklyn but from New Orleans -- the heart of bounce music and genuine connections.
  • πŸ’‘ One of my special interests is psychology and understanding human relationships.
  • 🎧 Lover of sad-girl indie/alternative music as well as some light post-punk tunes and anything that feels like the soundtrack from a coming-of-age film.

Fun Fact

  • Did you know that one of my hobbies is ceramics? I'm particularly interested in hand-building and recreating objects I've lost throughout my life. One day, I plan to showcase pieces inspired by the items I lost during Hurricane Katrina when I was nine.
