I first learned to code on Neopets back in 2007, and then Scratch in 2009. I made my first website at 9 years old. My first 'summer job' was at the age of 14, setting up several Mac computer labs, replacing RAM, troubleshooting, etc.
I have a year of IT experience. You can learn more from my LinkedIn/resume. My specialty is web development (React/node.js/express/postgreSQL), but I am always open to new experiences.
Outside of programming, I am an artist and author. I have written and illustrated several comic books. As both an artist and programmer I have my own views on AI. I am firmly against art theft; this includes the usage of creators' work (drawings, voice, etc.) to train AI models without permission.

But let's be honest- my best accomplishment is getting published in the Neopian Times. :-)
12-year old Tracey is so over these icebreaker activities.
