ABOUT ME
I’m Mandie, a developer and designer living in Grand Rapids, MI. After graduating from Grand Valley State University in 2008 with a degree in Photography, I traveled the country spending time in Austin, Portland, and Chicago meeting a diverse group of incredible people. During that time, I explored various careers from veterinary medicine to project management. In 2018, I moved back to Michigan to be near family and pursue a career in web development.
In my free time, I love to listen to comedy podcasts, craft, watch true crime documentaries, read, and spend time with my dog, Winnie. Drop me an email.
