Most people call me "Rachel", and some prefer "Ada". I was born in Michigan, USA and I am currently based in Lagos, Nigeria.
In April 2021, I enrolled in a beginner programming course at a local technical college. This was
how I discovered the world of code for the first time, and fell in love with it forever.
Since then, I have left a job as a hair stylist, gotten certified in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and ReactJS, and built multiple websites and web
applications for my personal use, for family, friends, and even for paying clients as a freelancer on Upwork dot com.
Right now, I am sharpening my skills, collaborating with other passionate developers, working on exciting projects, and searching for job opportunities.
When I'm not at the keyboard, you can find me reading, listening to a podcast, cooking, or all three :)
