Hello, I'm Alissa! Welcome to my portfolio!

I am a front-end developer with a passion for creating visually appealing and user-friendly sites.

A little about me.

Hi, I’m Alissa Lorberau. I live just outside Corpus Christi, TX, with my family. My journey into tech began after having twins and wanting a career that allowed me to stay close to home. Though I came from the medical field, I found my passion in coding and haven’t looked back since.
I started with basic web development and steadily grew more confident. Now, I’m a front-end developer who loves building user-friendly, visually appealing websites. Tech has given me both personal flexibility and a space to be creative and grow professionally.
When I’m not coding or learning something new, I enjoy reading and spending quality time with my family.

Guess the Word

Players guess the word by entering one letter at a time. If the player guesses all the letters correctly before they use up their allotted guesses, they win! Using my ability to manipulate the DOM, I was able to perfect this program.
