About

My name is Daphne Mintz. I'm a full stack software engineer with a background in product design. Writing code is what I like to do. Every app I build is a journey. My approach can be summed up with, "Learn from your users, design for them, make their day better. The important thing is keep exploring their experience."

Check out the projects I developed as a student in the Software Engineering Immersive program offered by General Assembly. I welcome you to provide feedback in GitHub and to connect with me on LinkedIn.
