About Heather Weaver
Here I am — born in Colorado, raised around the country, and currently living in New Orleans. I started writing code in middle school (gotta get that good Myspace profile), and since then I’ve gone on to get a theatre design degree, learn SEO copywriting, teach LEGO robotics, build several dozen websites and web apps, and do some deep dives into computer science. I’m entirely self-taught (except for that visual basic class in 10th grade), and will continue to be because learning is my greatest passion.
Today, I’m doing a lot of things. I’m working as a professional developer, designer, and technical marketer. My development background gives me a solid foundation of technical marketing skills, an upper hand in data analysis, and plenty of opportunities for automation. I’m also teaching courses on Skillshare, writing articles and tutorials, and working on new video content.
