Hi, I am a full stack developer based in Atlanta.
About.
Hello, I am Ritu. Welcome to my portfolio!
I am experienced in development and implementation of software applications using Java, J2EE, Spring Framework and JavaScript. I have been involved in all phases of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) including analysis, design, implementation, and coding.
My story
I have worn different hats: software engineer, sales & marketeer, a caretaker and an art teacher. I bring my varied experience to my work too, can understand different perspectives, and hope to provide new viewpoints.
As a self taught developer, I love learning about latest technologies from all vantage points: how they fit together as a whole, and their intricacies as individual components too.
Some defining words
Multilingual
I speak English, Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil and Spanish (limited working proficiency).
Active
When not coding, you can find me in a yoga pose, hiking or taking brisk walks.
Responsible
I headed the Debate team in college. Handled client subsidiary in Texas.
Public Speaker
I was an award winning debater and public speaker in school and college.
Dog Lover
I love to pet all the doggos, especially my King Charles Cavalier, Coco.
Artist
Painting is my favorite hobby. I love painting pet and human portraits.

Centering in CSS
Easy guide to centering in CSS. When I started out as a web developer, getting a hang of CSS took some sweet time. CSS in itself is easy to start with, the rules being easy to follow but implementing and managing them is another ball game all together.
