Jenna Black
I’m a software engineering student and designer who builds practical tools with clean structure and intentional presentation. I care about systems that work reliably, but I also care about how they feel to use. If something is useful and well-designed, people don’t avoid it. They come back to it.
By day, I run a law office where clarity and precision aren’t optional. By night, I build web applications, internal tools, and experimental projects that balance logic, usability, and visual polish. I gravitate toward work that’s solid underneath and calm on the surface. Thoughtful systems. Clean interfaces. No unnecessary friction.
A Little Bit About Me
I came to software engineering through problem-solving, not trend-chasing. Years of office management showed me how fragile systems become when they’re confusing, poorly designed, or unpleasant to use. I’d rather build tools people actually want to touch.
My approach blends structure, usability, and visual design. I think about workflows, edge cases, and what happens after launch, but I also care about typography, spacing, and first impressions. Presentation isn’t decoration. It’s part of how a system communicates and earns trust.
I’m especially interested in web development and internal tools where thoughtful design quietly improves daily work. I value clarity, maintainability, and interfaces that feel deliberate rather than bloated. I’m currently seeking junior or entry-level roles where I can grow as an engineer while contributing strong organization, design instincts, and attention to detail.
