About Me

Hi! I'm James Ji, a full-stack web developer based in Rochester, NY. After graduating high school I took a step back from education and worked as an opening/closing manager at a pizzeria for two years. After returning to college I ultimately decided to become a developer after I fell in love with coding. Following that decision, I explored various languages and completed a full-stack MERN boot camp offered by the loving NuCamp community.


When I'm not coding and learning new technologies, you can find me gaming/streaming, drawing, reading mangas, cooking, finding ways to improve myself, and watching the Harry Potter series for the millionth time.
