About Evan Forde Barden

Working as a frontend developer at New York Life Insurance, building their agent-facing sales platform, leading to increased sales in both years since I\'ve been there. I previously completed Full Stack Academy\'s Immersive Web Development program learning foundational technologies such as React, JavaScript, CSS, HTML, and more. I\'m excited by both front end and back end technologies and would eventually like a fullstack role that will allow me to continue learning about both ends. I would love to work for a mission-driven organization.Prior to FSA, I was managing operations, marketing, finances, and HR for a boutique tutoring company, while at night, you could find me performing comedy on the stages of NYC. I\'m a multi-faceted professional and artist who loves working with big-hearted companies and I always help foster great communication and a positive work culture.With experience ranging from financial technology consulting to social media marketing to teaching improv comedy, I\'m always learning something new and drawing each experience forward to the next.
