Colleen Sain's Projects and Code Samples

This collection showcases projects I built while transitioning back to software engineering via the Recurse Center, a 3-month full-time programming retreat.

I previously spent 5 years as a full-stack developer, working primarily with Ruby on Rails, React, and Elm. At RC, I revisited those tools and learned new languages, including Kotlin and Python.

My background includes an MBA, a Master's in Environmental Science, and 3 years in product and strategy roles at Vanguard. This combination of engineering and product strategy experience allows me to approach projects with a broad, interdisciplinary lens.
