Hi! I am Lina Martinez

About Me

Hello! I'm Lina Martinez, and I'm transitioning from a career in social work to the dynamic field of software development. My background in social work gave me a unique perspective on the challenges faced by individuals and communities, and as I spent time working directly with people, I realized the powerful role that technology could play in addressing some of these challenges on a larger scale. Through my work with various non-profit organizations, I honed my problem-solving skills and developed a strong desire to make a broader impact.

Recently, I discovered the incredible potential of technology to drive social change and decided to pivot my career towards software development. I have since immersed myself in learning programming languages (HMTL5, CSS3, JavaScript). This career change excites me as it combines my commitment to social justice with my newfound love for coding.
