A Quick bit
For the last 3 years I have been learning and training full stack javascript programming with a one-on-one mentor, on my own, and completing full stack coding bootcamp. The last year I have been working as a freelance web developer working primarily for an online media company and have also built sites for a national consulting company, a health and wellness company, as well as a health care company. Along with building websites for clients, I have been working on personal projects including full stack MERN applications and WordPress sites. When I’m not programming, I like to spend time with my family, eat, surf and root for my Chicago sports teams!
Chicago to Hawaii
After graduating from the University of Illinois, Chicago, I worked in technology sales for a couple of companies including Cbeyond and TouchTunes Interactive Networks. I decided to make a change and moved to Honolulu on a whim.
When I decided that I really wanted to spend my time building things for the internet, I have been full steam ahead ever since. I began a full stack Javascript course on Treehouse and procured a mentor to teach me one on one. I completed aFull Stack Bootcamp and started looking for freelance work. I have been working primarily with an online media company that holds online seminars and addition to individual clients.
