Who is Nico?

Hello, thanks for visiting my website! Scroll to learn about me.

I'm a full stack web developer with a passion for creating awesome digital experiences. I've been in the game for several years now and I absolutely love what I do.
I'm fluent in a variety of programming languages and frameworks, including JavaScript, React, SvelteKit, Node.js, MongoDB and SQL. This site in particuluar was built using NuxtJS. I've built everything from e-commerce sites to complex web applications, and I'm always eager to take on new challenges.
What I love most about web development is the opportunity to bring people's ideas to life. Whether it's a simple landing page or a complex web app, there's something incredibly satisfying about taking a concept from the drawing board to the screen.
Outside of work, you can usually find me tinkering with new technologies, helping new developers with their journey, or something sports related. I'm a firm believer that the best developers are always learning, and I'm constantly pushing myself to stay up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices.
If you're looking for a passionate, experienced, and all-around awesome full stack web developer , look no further! Let's chat and see what we can create together.

Current Passions!

Here's a few things I'm learning right now.

Machine Learning

Currently, I'm learning about Neural Networks and several other methods of machine learning. One of my goals is to make my own image classification model that can give niche labels to different pieces of art.

Web3 Smart Contracts

As a web3 developer, I interact with data from the blockchain every day. One of the things I'm working towards is being able to write very secure Smart Contracts, and maybe even help companies expose weaknesses in their own.

Green Sock Animations

Not sure if you couldn't tell already, but some of my site uses GSAP, and I'm striving towards being able to build a smooth and seamless site with plenty of animations and only requires the user to scroll, read, and be amazed.

Blogging

We were onced assigned to write a blog post about our journey as a developer in school, and from there I discovered that I actually enjoyed writing. I think it could be beneficial to other developers if they could read about another developers experiences. So, I've made it a goal of mine to try and write one blog per month.
