Introducing...

Christin Martin
from Washington D.C.

Hello, I’m Christin, a full-stack web developer from the Washington D.C. area. I am passionate about building and developing websites. My creativity and attention to detail lend themselves to the client side of development while also considering the data storage and security side. Driven by my lifelong love of technology and problem-solving, I am beyond excited to finally follow my passion and pursue a career in Web Development.



About Me

Life-long learner

I am happiest when I am learning new things. That's what attracted me to tech in the first place - constant evolution. This love of learning fuels my ability to quickly pick up new programming languages and frameworks, keeping me on top of the latest trends in web development.

Adaptable

I'm a naturally adaptable person, honed by living in eight states and countless moves. I thrive in new situations and enjoy meeting new people. This adaptability is crucial in web development, where technologies and trends are constantly evolving.

When I am not coding...

I love spending time outdoors, whether it's hitting the hiking trails or walking my energetic Boston Terrier, Scout. I'm also an avid reader and enjoy exploring new recipes in the kitchen. Let's just say, I have a healthy respect for deadlines, both in code and in the kitchen!
