Hi, I'm Erica.

I love elegant software that functions seamlessly for users and organizations. On the backend I'm experienced in Flask, SQLAlchemy, Express, Sequelize, and FastAPI, and on the frontend in React, Redux, NextJS, and Tailwind. Previously I worked for 3.5 years in data evaluation and engineering using SPSS, a language similar to SQL and R.

I thrive on designing cohesive and performant infrastructure. My background in data informs my attention to detail, organization, excellent documentation, and technical communication.

Past work includes statewide data evaluation and legislative reporting on funding at over 50 economic opportunity nonprofits in Oregon; developing databases; B2B and B2C research; and research on equity in public and private education.

I grew up in Portland, Oregon, and have traveled to a dozen countries (mainly Germany, Taiwan, and the Netherlands). Outside of work, you can catch me reading sci-fi, exercising, and volunteering.
