Stephanie McCollom

I'm a full stack software engineer based in Chicago, IL with experience in JavaScript, Node.js, Express, Ruby, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Go, React, Docker, and AWS. Prior to my career in Software Engineering, I was a Production Manager where my focus was overseeing budgets, schedules and communication of animated television programs. Now, I love to solve complex problems in the software engineering space.

Recently, I created Laridae, an open-source, zero-downtime, reversible database schema migration tool for PostgreSQL integrated into a deployment pipeline hosted on GitHub Actions.
