About

A picture of me in the Alps with a rainbow in the background
This is me, near Innsbruck, Austria.

I've been a developer since 2012, when I started making Wordpress sites. I currently work as a software engineer for Jellyfish, where I primarily do frontend work to build Jellyfish's engineering management platform. Before that, I spent almost five years in civic tech at Truss and Ad Hoc, helping to make government digital services better (like healthcare.gov!) I started my career in Portland, Oregon working for a couple of startups. These days I tend to work primarily in React/TypeScript, but I have interest and some experience in Node, Go, and Ruby/Rails.

Outside of programming, I enjoy reading, hiking, playing video games, Crossfit, and spending time with my family.

I sometimes Tweet, and I am available for select freelance work–send me an email if you have a project I could help with. I also keep a personal blog with writings that aren't directly related to tech at hannasthoughts.com, just in case you are interested in reading more of what I write!

What About the Site?

I'm glad you asked! This site is statically generated with Hugo, a Golang-based site generator. I wrote the CSS myself (though, I borrowed some excellent practices from Bootstrap.) The fonts are served from Google, and the icons are from Font Awesome. The entire thing is on Github, if you are curious.
