Junior Development @ iHeartRadio

My first job as a software developer was at a small company (~40 people), and the first company I worked for in tech was even smaller (~5), so I was wary of moving to a large Fortune 500 company. I didn’t want to get lost in the sea of engineers…

Coding: Where To Start

I first found a love for coding while I was a law school student. Perhaps it was the fact that I should’ve had my head in a contracts textbook that drove me to a new path, or maybe it was fate — I haven’t decided. Ever since starting my journey…

Creating a Digital(ish) Community

3 Things To Know Before Sitting for Software Developer Job Interviews

Based on my interview journey as a junior(ish) developer — When I was approaching graduation from a software bootcamp in 2018, people always told me, “Your first job will be the hardest to find!” For me personally, that turned out to be anything but true. I secured a job two days after graduation, and found the interview process extremely easy…

Startup or Corporate: Where Should You Start a Software Engineering Career?

Trying to decide if you should work for a small start-up or vast conglomerate? Here’s a look at my experience at both — I’ve had the opportunity to spend over a year as a software engineer at both a small startup (with 5 employees) and a Fortune 500 company (with over 10k employees) and have many thoughts on the advantages and disadvantages of each.

Let’s Talk About Depression

Anthony Bourdain. Kate Spade. Chester Bennington. Robin Williams. The list could go on and on. But the taboo of talking about mental illness and depression shouldn’t have to. It seems, to me, that society has held this dark cloud over the topic of mental illness. We can talk quite a…
