I’m Ember Zhang (she/they), a software developer based in New York City. I work across the full stack and have experience working in Python, Ruby on Rails, JavaScript / TypeScript, React.JS, and Node.JS. I enjoy learning about science, history, and personal development, powerlifting, short-track speedskating, travelling like a local, writing, and spending time with my partner in the city. https://emberlzhang.github.io/contact/ Tue, 01 Oct 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://emberlzhang.github.io/contact/ LinkedIn GitHub GitLab Email me https://emberlzhang.github.io/portfolio/dungeons-portals/ Mon, 30 Sep 2024 00:00:00 +0000 https://emberlzhang.github.io/portfolio/dungeons-portals/ Description The Dungeons & Portals Game is a platformer game developed in vanilla JavaScript within a Flask application.
