Swiching Careers

I have a bachelor's in biology, a master's in a field that includes economics, policy, data analysis, GIS, and ecology. I have experience teaching, working as a chemist, a biologist, and writing safety programs for a large food manufacturing company. I'm interested in getting a job in tech.

Currently in California central valley, hoping to relocate anywhere in the country.
