Hello there! 👋 I’m Ann, thanks for dropping by. I’m a creative coder and empathetic communicator with a boundless curiosity! My meandering career path includes programming marine navigational software for cargo ships in the Netherlands 🚢 and teaching computer science at a diverse public high school in sunny Pasadena, CA 👩🏻🏫.
- 🌎 I grew up in southeast Alaska and currently call New Hampshire home.
- 🛼 I love learning new things: my latest is roller skating! I’m VERY bad, but I’m trying and it’s fun!
- ⛵ A few of my random interests include tall ships, old books and maps, ghost stories, and broadside ballads.
Teaching & Coding Fun
I crafted the curriculum for a four-year computer science pathway and taught every level from freshmen to seniors (which included AP Computer Science Principles). Designing and teaching fun, engaging projects was a blast, and it was so amazing to see what my students created!
Blogging & Art
I love doodling and trying out new ways of making art! I’m trying to get better about putting my little artsy projects out there, so I’m taking a crack at actually updating my blog on a semi-regular basis.
