Hello World! I think it’s time for a little reintroduction! My name is Bree, and I’m here to help you engineer a career to fund a life you love.

I’m a multi-passionate content creator on a mission to be your new favorite lifestyle dev. Coding is a passion, and I use it to fund the other parts of my life that come around when I close the terminal at 5:01. On my page, you’ll meet:
 
💻 Bree, the SWE and developer advocate
I’m a frontend software engineer and developer advocate who’s passionate about educating and supporting developers. I’ll talk about everything from getting to the next level of your corporate career to new tech!

🎮 Bree, the gamer
I love video games, and they’re such a big part of my life. I’ll share my favorite games or make a gaming comparison to help you build technical skills. Plus, I love a gamified learning experience.

🎤 Bree, the public speaker
I’m an international speaker who has spoken at tech conferences worldwide. I’m giving you the scoop on how you can use public speaking to fund your travel and make some extra cash too!

🗺️ Bree, the traveler
Travel has become such a big part of my life over the past few years, and I’ll be taking your on trips with me as we explore new destinations.

📚 Bookish Bree
Reading, books, and stationery are my happy place away from screens. I’ll share everything from my favorite journaling supplies to prompts that are a staple in my wellness routine.

🏰 Bree, the Disney Adult
I’m a huge Disney fan and aspire to visit all of the Disney parks one day. Don’t be surprised if you see ears, Spirit jerseys, or LoungeFly bags in the background

🤳🏾 Bree, your new favorite lifestyle developer

My platform is all about helping YOU use your career in engineering, combined with valuable skills to fund a life of flexibility and freedom. Work is great, but it doesn’t define you. I’ll share everything I’ve learned (and am learning) about leveling up your career and improving technical skills, and how to use those skills to fund the life that starts when you close the computer. 

If this is your vibe, make sure you’re following along for the journey we’re about to take together.
