Welcome!
I'm Emi, a web developer based out of Detroit, Michigan.
You've made it to my desk.

If you're new here ...
Let's get properly introduced!
I'm a professional software engineer with a focus on full-stack web development and design. I find satisfaction in building high quality, accessible web applications.
On the more creative side of things, I enjoy drawing, painting, occasional music-making, and mending items with the Waawiyatanong Repair Cafe and Detroit Repair Cafe.
If you're here, you may be interested in working with me. If so, reach out anytime at emikjackson@gmail.com.
