Short Summery
Hi there, my name is Chris Fortin I am a web developer. I have been studying web design and development for just under 5 years. I have a huge desire to work with technology and cutting edge software and hardware. My learning curve is very fast; I can learn new coding languages with only a few days to practice. I have experience working with a small dev team for a common goal using version control to collaborate on a single project. Using stacks and frameworks like the MEAN stack and PHP with Wordpress I have created websites from start to finish from the drawing stage, to digital design, to the development, then testing and finally all the way to the release of production. I’m easy to get along with; I can have a good conversation on mosttopics. I love hockey and astronomy. All I want is to fulfilled in my work. Technology has the potential to chance our lives hugely; I want to be involved with its development.
