Hi, my name is Toby Prafke
I'm a Full-Stack Web Developer
About Me
I am a web developer with a passion for problem solving and creating engaging user experiences.
During my experience as a legislative staffer, I learned the important role that software plays in an organization’s ability to effectively solve problems; which led me to start exploring technology solutions I could implement to improve my processes. I ended up teaching myself Python and was able to automate parts of my workflow.
In order to learn more, I attended local coding meetups and found my passion for JavaScript development. This experience drove me to enroll in a fulltime coding boot camp where I utilized Agile methodologies to collaboratively build websites. My mission is to drive results through enterprise software development and public interest technology.
