During my internship as a React web developer with the startup, Civilience, I worked on the frontend team to produce high-quality code by debugging, improving library integrations, redesigning logic in order to optimize code to enable or optimize a feature, and translating Figma designs into clean functional code. I have also regularly acted as a liaison for the design team to discuss the feasibility of designs from a technical standpoint. I worked on problems that strove to harmonize design and functionality. I continuously presented my concerns along with potential amendments to different teams and product managers to tailor a feature in order to best carry out the aims of the organization. This role afforded me great hands-on exposure to React and interdisciplinary skills that I know I will employ more regularly as my career progresses.

During my time at A Free Bird, I was able to work as a front-end developer directly altering code that would directly translate to the main website of the organization.
