About me
Hello! I'm Megan, a Cardiff based Engineering Manager/Frontend Engineer at Crowdcube.
I'm originally from Nashville, Tennessee but have lived in the UK for 8+ years now. Outside of work I enjoy walks with my two dogs, travel, cooking, and getting my nose stuck in a good (audio)book. The TL;DR is in bullet points, but feel free to expand the below for the full story.
- I'm a Frontend Engineer specialising in React and Typescript, as well as an Engineering Manager in charge of line managing a small team of engineers.
- I'm really passionate about trying to close the gender gap in this industry as well as helping women pursue careers in technology.
- I love getting involved in things: mentoring, coaching, volunteering- you name it.
- I believe in programming with intention- I always view what I'm working on through the eyes of the user. Just because something looks good doesn't mean that it provides a good user experience.
- I love to travel, but equally I love photographing my travels. I try to keep my Flickr up to date as I go!
