⚑ Junior Spotlight: Chris Wade

Hi, I'm Chris from Melbourne, Australia. I recently finished the @LeWagonMEL boot-camp in March'21 where our final group project was a social network 'for good' ( love-lumina.me ) utilizing Rails, JS, ActionCable, and OAuth. I've since gone on to learn React / Redux, StimulusJS, Tailwind CSS, and dove deeper into Web-sockets and HTML over the wire in general. 

I personally seem to steer towards the back-end, and building the foundations of a project. I would love to be involved with a team again, learning from seniors, I have a passion for Ruby, and would love to get it touch with any companies looking for an eager to learn candidate.
