Hello,
I'm Jen Taylor.
Jen Nicole Taylor
I'm a front-end web developer, podcast addict, and climber currently based in Toronto, Canada.
Coding
I am focused on building an inclusive and universally accessible web. I’m looking for opportunities to learn new languages and frameworks, improve my JavaScript skills, and give back to Toronto’s tech community.
Personal
When I'm not glued to my screen, I'm most likely bouldering at the climbing gym, doing yoga, or mentoring at Ladies Learning Code. I also like to sip tea, linger in bookstores, and listen to podcasts while I cook.
