PERSONNEL FILE / FELICIA FEL

I started in design. Then I wanted to know how it all worked.

I'm Felicia, a full-stack engineer in Auckland. I bring a design background to the web products and interactive things I build.

01 / ORIGIN STORY

It wasn't really a career change.

I studied 3D animation and VFX, then worked in visual design. The more websites and products I designed, the more I wanted to understand what was happening underneath. So I started learning how to build them too.

Today I work across Vue/Nuxt, React/Next.js, Angular, Node.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, GraphQL, Redis, Docker, and cloud tooling. I care less about a long list of frameworks than using the right tools and leaving things in a solid state for the next person.

Having worked in both design and engineering, I tend to notice how a product works as well as how it feels to use. I like getting involved early and seeing a project through to the end.
