A fullstack developer for Mined Minds, Heather Shockney came to coding through a bootcamp after a long career as a writer. Perhaps this is why she approaches developing from different angles than many other programmers do, and a key reason why she is a strong proponent for incorporating UX into the vocabulary and practices of a developer.

“I have always been interested in design and doing front end development is my favorite part of being a developer,” says Heather. “We have a small team and my boss offered for me to take a UX course and bring back the skills to the team.”
