Hello, I'm Sally.
I'm a software developer, an Illinois-native, and an avid
plant-hoarder.
(This site is still a work in progress - Feel free to check out my planned changes under "Planned Website Improvements"!)

My cultural identity and family background has a large part in
shaping me to be who I am today:
I am a proud first-generation Cambodian American and am the
first to attend college in my immediate family. (Angkor Wat
- Siem Reap, Cambodia)
My parents and older family members are survivors of the
Khmer Rouge Genocide.
I attribute my strong work ethic and drive to succeed to them. (Phnom Penh, Cambodia)

About Me
My name is Sally Chhuon and I live in the Chicago suburbs.
I have a new-found interest in web development and have some experience mainly in .NET Framework, ASP.NET (Webforms), and front-end programming. I love learning new things and have been working on improving my programming skills during my down-time. I hope to eventually expand my knowledge across the stack to become a Full Stack Web Developer.
When I'm not doing anything programming-related, you can usually find me chasing after my 2 dogs, inspecting my plant collection, or dabbling in photography.
