I love teaching people to code, and I am currently doing so as a Senior Developer Advocate at AWS. I have been employed in the tech industry since 2014, holding multiple software engineering positions at startups, and a Distinguished Faculty and Faculty Lead role at General Assembly's Software Engineering Immersive.
I blog a lot about code and my life as a developer. My blog posts have had over well over a million reads and have been featured on DEV's top 7, the top spot on HackerNews, FreeCodeCamp, and in JSWeekly. You can hear about new posts on my newsletter.
I also have a podcast with two other incredible women: Ladybug Podcast. We talk about the tech industry, our backgrounds, and go in depth on code-topics.
When I'm not coding you can find me watching my favorite New England sports teams, taking runs with my dog Blair, or rock climbing.

fullstack, programming, python, teaching
Sean and Kelly invite Ali Spittel to talk about how teachers can go beyond their first programming language and help students learn to create more robust projects. If you’ve started with Python, how do you learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to make a front end for a project? Or vice versa?
