Who am I?
👋 Hi, I’m Alex Castillo,I know how to work, learning fast new tools and paradigms collaboratively, using all the experience I gained through life experiences, and of course coding every day at Microverse, with a high amount of other developers around the world. Complying with the deadlines.
Just started the Miccroverse program, I notice the importance of learning and adapting to new languages and developing paradigms, and that allow me to create a lot of capstone projects in Javascript, HTML, CSS, and some frameworks related to that.
With my professional experience, even it’s not related to software development, I learned to lead collaborative teams, to achieve goals, until keeping constant learning to myself and all the team's members.
