Hello World!
I'm Sasha!
Welcome to my portfolio!
My name is Sasha Bajzek, and I am a software engineer with a structural engineering background. I am a strong collaborator, a fast learner, great at working on both the big picture and small details, an accessibility advocate, and I love creating interactive user experiences.
I value collaboration, honesty, and inclusion.
