About me

My name is Michelle Barker and I’m a CSS nerd 👋 I’m currently a Senior Front End Developer at Ada Mode, where I work on Windscope, web-based data visualisation and exploration software for wind farm operators.

You can also find me writing and speaking about CSS and digital sustainability on the web and around the world 🌍
