Hey, my name is Joseph but you can call me Logan (a story for another time). I’m an aspiring app developer from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada that is always looking for ways to continually develop my skills. I love the challenge of finding tech solutions to every day problems.
When I was younger I always thought coding was cool….but complicated and beyond my ability. However after leaving high school (2010) I was hired by a web development company that taught me the basics. Once I realized I had the ability I never stopped learning. In fact, ever since then I have continually added to my skills. I’ve taken courses, read blogs, watch videos and more to learn just for fun.
Of course coding isn’t the only thing I enjoy. When I’m not sitting at my computer I’m enjoying the outdoors. During the summer it’s fishing or the beach. During the fall I’m out hunting with my dog. When it becomes winter I like to spend my time traveling, experiencing different cultures. Then there are the days I don’t feel like leaving the house, where I’ll enjoy a good movie or some video games with friends/family.
