Welcome

I'm Talia Shaffer, a backend focused web and software developer with experience in business administration and operations management. This combination gives me a strong understanding of both professional organizations and the technologies that power them. I approach every project with an emphasis on clarity, maintainability, and performance, contributing effectively to development teams, organization leadership, and end-users.

Hi, thank you for taking a look at my website! Currently, as I'm sure you noticed, it's incomplete and lacking in a little pizzazz.
I'm working on it during my own time between work, projects, and summer events. I plan to have it finished soon so stay tuned (updating approximately weekly)!
