Hello, I'm Gail!
I'm a frontend developer with a double degree in CSE and Design.
I love crafting experiences for the web.
About Me
I studied computer science and design in South Korea, and I've been building for the web ever since. I've worked on everything from VR touch-typing research to website design to scrappy startup life, and all of it taught me that I'm happiest when I'm somewhere between code and craft. I work mostly with TypeScript, React, Angular, Next.js, and Node.js, with more tools mixed in depending on the project. I like picking up new ones as I go.
Outside of work, I take film photos, travel when I can, and I'm currently trying to learn ukulele. I also have dogs. Marla's the favorite, but don't tell the others.
