Meet Thalia Stafford
A computer science major with a graphic design minor, passionate about creating intuitive, user-friendly systems that make life easier for people. My work blends full-stack development, design, and applied research, with a focus on practical, human-centered solutions.
My Motivation
By using technology to day to day life easier for people, the focus is on building systems that feel intuitive, approachable, and genuinely helpful. My enjoyment comes from thinking through how users interpret and experience a product, and from combining full-stack development with design to create solutions that truly support people.
My Journey
From coding applications to giving campus tours, I blend technical skills with creative leadership to bring ideas to life.
