MERN Stack Web-Developer

ABOUT ME
To advance effectively, it is crucial to have a solid grasp of the fundamentals.
Greetings from Cape Town! I'm Jason Morta, a passionate full-stack web developer dedicated to crafting digital wonders. My journey into web development began in 2019, and I've been captivated ever since.
My love for web development ignited when I created my first website from scratch. Seeing my ideas come to life digitally was a transformative experience. Since then, I have pursued an exhilarating quest to bring creativity to life through code.
What truly sets me apart is my unwavering commitment to creating exceptional digital experiences. I believe in the power of clean code, responsive design, and continuous learning. I strive to stay at the forefront of technology, delivering innovative solutions that stand out in the digital world.

I began my journey into web development in 2019 by taking some online classes, although they didn't yield the desired outcomes I had anticipated. However, in April 2022, I made a significant leap by enrolling in and successfully completing the Full-Stack Web Developer course at HyperionDev's on-site boot camp and haven't stopped coding since I found my passion.
