Hi! My name is Dan Ditomaso, and I'm a Toronto-based Front-End Web Developer. I enjoy designing and building accessible, interactive and responsive websites. I recently graduated from the Immersive Web Development Program at HackerYou. Prior to that, I was an IT Infrastructure Architect working with cloud technologies from Microsoft, Amazon, and Google. I have over 10 years experience in IT Infrastructure consulting, I realized while working in that role the importance of being a part of a team to deliver a steller customer experience. One of my goals of being a Front End Developer it to always build beautiful, functional web applications that also have a great user experience.
Prior to attending HackerYou I was a self motivated learner with a thirst for knowledge on the latest web technologies and development best practices. I am a developer with a repertoire of projects that have taught me the value of excellence in all that I do. When you don’t find me behind a computer, I'll be spending my time either playing Ultimate Frisbee in one of the leagues around the city, or on rock climbing at one of the many cliffs that are located around Ontario.
I love what I do, and hold myself to very high standards. I bring with me a keen desire to continue learning paired with my years of demonstrable experience working with a variety of technologies both infrastructure and web based. I strive for excellence in everything I develop.
These are some my current skills:
JavaScript
HTML
CSS3
Git
React
jQuery
Gulp
Sass
Linux
Docker
Firebase
AWS
These are some of the frameworks & languages I am focusing on learning:
VueJS
Python
Flask
