Ebonie graduated with her Bachelor of Science degree in Information Technology from Drexel University. With her father in the computer science profession, she was never a stranger to all the tech lingo and started out her post-college career as a software test engineer while learning how to code in her free time.
As a full stack developer at YIKES, Ebonie has truly found a continuous love for working with WordPress and website applications in general.
When Ebonie is not coding, you’ll find her on the FM radio dial (WKDU 91.7FM), playing her favorite metal music while drinking coffee or at a metal concert, moshing in the pit.
