Monica is a junior Scala developer at JP Morgan, working in a team who aims to improve understanding of the banks’ data and data models.She began her programming journey using C#, then onto a mixture C++, JavaScript and TypeScript throughout her undergraduate Physics degree. She now writes Scala full time at her current position.
