<h1>About Galen</h1>
<div class="col-md-4">
<p>
I decided to become a full-stack web developer when I realized it was a field in which solving puzzles could be my job. I get excited by new error messages because they are like clues, and am comfortable with the idea that I don’t immediately know the answers to every problem, because I’m relentless enough to figure it out. Nothing motivates me like a challenge. (If you really want me to get something done, tell me I couldn’t possibly do it.)
</p>
<p>
In a past life I was a middle-school STEM teacher through <a href="www.teachforamerica.org">Teach for America</a>. Through that I learned how to communicate abstract, complex ideas in clear, understandable pieces. This ability to break a large problem into smaller, manageable parts has proven invaluable both in my own coding and talking about code with others, both as a pair programmer and as a TA.
</p>
<p>
My three biggest passions: programming, people and puppies. (Check out my <a href='https://allthepuppies.herokuapp.com'>‘pet’ project</a>!)
