Haiii I'm Lily ^w^

Reykjavík, IS

she/her

I'm a 21 year old computer programmer with 5 years of cumulative experience in full-stack web application development. I went through the PHP → Express.js → Next.js pipeline. Now I specialise in crafting beautiful front-ends for web applications and websites, with competence at the back-end.

I would also like to mention that I am transgender and identify as bisexual. It may genuinely shock you, dear reader, how much these two true facts positively affect my perception to recruiters.
