About Me

Emily Petracco

Hi there, I'm Emily! I'm a front-end web developer based in Toronto, Canada.

I come from a very creative background, working previously as a floral designer and having gone to school for cake decorating and baking. I love anything where I can show off my sense of design and creativity, which seamlessly translates into a love of HTML and CSS.

I graduated from the web development bootcamp at Juno College in 2021 and have since then worked as a web developer for a software company as well as some freelance and personal projects. I really enjoy working with others and being part of a team. With plenty of years of customer service experience I have excellent communication skills and I'm happy to build positive relationships with coworkers and clients alike.

Along with coding, I love spending time in the kitchen cooking vegetarian Mexican food and baking sourdough bread, working on several craft projects at one time and rewatching Sex and the City on an infinite loop.
