Senior🎓
Top SchoolAnna Peterson is an engineering professional with 9 years of experience who blends full-stack web development skills with a deep commitment to social justice and human-centered design. Currently at GiveCard, she builds secure, accessible donation experiences that aim to keep marginalized communities included in an increasingly cashless world. Her background includes frontline service at St. Francis Center, where she learned trauma-informed care and practical housing-first operations, informing her product work with real-world empathy. A Boston College CS graduate and former lead web developer, she pairs hands-on coding across HTML/CSS/JavaScript with operational knowledge from nonprofits and enterprise settings. Notably, she spent a year embedded with nonprofits to better understand beneficiary needs before returning to tech—an uncommon practice that shapes her pragmatic, impact-driven engineering approach.
