About me
Hi, I’m Rachel Brouzes, a full-stack web developer with a background in finance and a passion for building thoughtful, effective digital experiences. Before transitioning into tech, I spent a decade at Bank of America, where I developed expertise in project management, systems administration, and process optimization. That experience shaped the way I approach development—with precision, accountability, and a strong focus on client needs.
After ten years in the financial sector, I returned to college to pursue software development, earning my degree with a 4.0 GPA. That academic journey reflects my commitment to excellence and continuous learning—qualities I bring to every project.
Today, I partner with small businesses to design and build websites that are not only functional and user-friendly but also aligned with their goals. I believe in clean code, clear communication, and creating tools that help clients grow and thrive.
Outside of development, I’m also a yoga teacher and personal trainer. These roles keep me grounded and remind me of the importance of flexibility—both in body and in mindset—which I carry into my work with clients.
If you're a small business owner ready to elevate your online presence, I'd love to help bring your vision to life.
