Jayda Medina
Software Engineer
I’m a computer science major in my senior year at the University of Rochester. Software engineering is my craft, and I seek out every opportunity that I can to practice. When I’m not in class, I’m maintaining the website of my University’s juggling club, as well as the website for Virtual UR, cross-stitching, or rehearsing for my next show. I have experience with making websites from the ground up, as well as using tools like WordPress or Umbraco. I also have working knowledge of app development using Android Studio and Kotlin. I love learning about new tools for development and hearing about the experiences of developers out in the real world.
