Hi, I'm Lyla,
a London-based designer and software developer with a background in neuroscience.
I enjoy breathing life into innovative solutions.
About
After graduating with a Neuroscience degree, I decided to pursue my passion for programming and enrolled in a full-stack web development coding bootcamp. I am passionate about pushing boundaries to create innovative designs and software solutions. My designs prioritise impact through functionality and artistry.
My core tech-stack is React, TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Framer Motion, Python, and Figma. I am always open to learning new technologies.
When I'm not coding, I enjoy crafting experiences that are degustated, musical, or visual, wood carving and pyrography, or climbing and going on extensive walks. I am currently learning about fermentation techniques, book-binding, and needlework.
