My name is Erin Richards and I'm a front-end web developer with a concerning coffee addiction. I started learning how to code after almost 20 years in the Hospitality industry, looking for a change of pace and a rewarding career. While shaking tins behind the bar can be so much fun, it doesn't always spark joy. Building beautiful websites and useful apps allows me to explore my creativity more fully and challenges me to expand my world-view of whats possible.
I mainly work in HTML/CSS/JavaScript, with a working knowledge of React, NodeJS, ExpressJS, MongoDB, and Bootstrap.
Please take a look at my projects below or paruse my Technical Resume for a look at my work.
