Sorena Sawyer

Iā€™m a software engineer in love with learning new coding and programming languages, testing my knowledge, and expanding my capabilities!

I've built full stack applications working with a team through Github, designed the UI, created multiple features, and queried databases using SQL.

I love learning everyday as I continue to solve new problems or start new projects. I'm always so grateful to have the opportunity to help students in my current role as a Software Engineering Immersive Resident.

I love traveling and am always up for a new adventure! If I'm not inside coding, I'm out trying a new restaurant or watching the latest movie. Or I'm still inside, just enjoying some quality family time.
