hi hello!
I'm Jackie Ang.
I'm a Software Engineer at Braze, specializing in growth-driven projects spanning from frontend and backend development to UX design. My expertise includes proficiency in JavaScript (Node.js and React), HTML, Python, and SQL, allowing me to craft robust solutions that marry functionality with user-centric design.
In December 2021, I graduated from California Polytechnic University-San Luis Obispo with a BS in Liberal Arts and Engineering Studies, concentrating in Computer Science and Interactive Media Arts.
Let's connect – whether you're interested in discussing the intricacies of recent code implementations, exploring user experience enhancements, or debating why Mac Miller is the greatest artist of all time. I'm also always up for sharing and enjoying the latest culinary creations!
Core Design Values 🎨
🧑🤝🧑 Practice Empathy and Compassion
There is something to be learned from everyone. Good design requires imagining the world in the context of other people and taking your own biases into consideration. I know I will never be able to understand other people fully, but there's no harm in trying to do so right?
🔍 Be curious
It's easy to always go along with the normal flow of things but true learning stems from asking the right questions and taking a step back to ask "why?"
😄 Great solutions are rooted in ethusiasm
When given a task, I go as deep as I can into the problem so that I can understand what is being tackled at its core. Doing so allows me to make intentional and informed decisions when crafting a solution.
🌟Do the right thing.
