About Me
Welcome! I'm Jen Looper, Head of Academic Advocacy at AWS. I have over 23 years' experience as a web and mobile developer, specializing in creating cross-platform apps, often with an educational focus. I design excellent curriculum on technical topics and am known for the quality of my educational content.
I'm a multilingual multiculturalist with a passion for hardware hacking, mobile apps, the frontend of the web and various JavaScript frameworks and meta-frameworks, applied machine learning and AI (as well as the ramifications!) and discovering new things every day.
I'm also an author of a textbook, Computer Science for Kids: A Storytelling Approach for grades 6-8, aligned to CSTA standards. Learn more about this textbook at CS4Kids.club.
In 2018 I founded what became an international nonprofit organization, Front-End Foxes, Inc. Our mission was to educate women worldwide in front-end web and mobile technologies. During the pandemic we pivoted to become a free bootcamp for women. I'm very proud of what we accomplished over five years.
