Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/erikhuang

I am a full stack developer and recent graduate from Flatiron. After earning my Bachelors degree from the Berklee College of Music, I spent years traveling and performing in the US and Europe as well as teaching drums before realizing my passion for creating content extended to programming and building websites. From past experience collaborating with artists and creators, I bring a unique set of problem-solving skills and effective interpersonal communication to the work place. 

I have a love for learning languages, whether it be Javascript or Japanese. Most of my personal projects utilize React and Redux, as well as MVC architecture with Restful APIs in the back end. My goal will always be to never stop on my learning journey.
