Hi, I'm Cloe!
I'm a Support Engineer and Code Coach with a Computer Science background, focused on untangling complex issues, explaining things clearly, and making technology feel more approachable.
From smoke-filled kitchens to cloud-based systems, I thrive in fast-paced environments where complex problems meet creative solutions. With a background that spans restaurant leadership, technical support, software engineering, and mentoring aspiring coders, I bring a unique blend of hands-on grit, technical expertise, and a passion for continuous learning.
I'm driven by a love for problem-solving and cracking tough technical challenges while also helping teams grow through curiosity and collaboration. Armed with a Computer Science degree and STEM Education minor from UC Berkeley, I'm excited to connect, create, and contribute to projects and teams that value innovation and growth as much as I do.
Thanks for stopping by! If you're inspired or just want to chat, let's connect. I'm always eager to collaborate and tackle new challenges!
What People Have To Say
"There's truly nothing like having an instructor who I can implicitly trust to always conscientiously hold their students to high standards and who has taken the time to build such strong connections with them week after week, month after month, and in some cases, year after year! You've come through for us in countless ways, stepping in to sub at the last minute, being accommodating with your students' changing schedules, and finding ways to engage with students who may not always be easy. Thank you for being such an exemplary employee. Your outstanding character and integrity mean so much to us."
