Who is Gabriel F. Lujan?
A little bit about me...
I was born & raised in the San Francisco Bay Area and currently work & live here.
Along with programming, my passions include guitar, music, hockey (Go Sharks!) & baseball (Go Giants!).
I am a musician & former AV engineer turned software developer and I have a strong passion for all things frontend & fullstack. What I love the most about coding is when I am able to solve a problem or fix a bug. That sense of satisfaction is very rewarding. It’s what drives me whenever I encounter new challenges.
Prior to becoming a programmer, I attended college for audio engineering. I feel that is very much relevant with my path of becoming a web development engineer. I often think that programming and “signal flow” have a lot in common. I also liken songwriting to app design. Writing one riff is nice, but I tend to focus on the bigger picture and the song as a whole.
Finally, my personal & professional goals are to grow in everything that I do. I would like to take on more ownership and leadership of a team, or teams, to be able to help guide, mentor and provide a path to success, for myself and for those that I work with.
A Few Projects I've Done
For these projects, I worked solo, I worked with a team of 4, some were made front-to-back, and others were frontend only. Overall, I feel they are a strong representation of my adaptability to the projects needs as well as the needs of myself and my teammates.
LoL Pro Wins (school project)
A data visualization app to demonstrate the correlation between a pro League of Legends players team wins vs. their solo wins.
