Software Developer

About Jason

I'm a full-stack apprentice software developer with strong communication and problem-solving skills. I find joy in bashing my head against code until the problem is solved and learning more efficient ways to accomplish tasks.

My software development story began in late 2016 as I was exploring different careers paths. As a guy who has always had an interest in tech, naturally I came across software development. One thing led to another and I began to teach myself code by taking classes online. I immediately fell in love with the logic of JavaScript. A friend of mine recommended that I go to a software development bootcamp and hone my skills. I then began my path as a programmer by attending the Nashville Software School.
