Welcome to Jon Walz

I recently read this blog on how the best developers share more than they take and found it quite inspiring.

2019 was a massive year for me. Almost everything in my life changed: my place of work, the city I call home, and getting married my best friend

This is inspired from Dan Abromov’s recent blog post on knowing what you don’t know. 2018 was a big year for my career as a developer and I wanted to jot down some highlights about what I did learn.

Just over a year ago, I had learned that an old coworker’s wife had started at the same code school that I did here in Portland. I casually offered to help and she gladly accepted.

I love learning. The strange part of this realization is that I performed terribly in school. I’m honestly surprised they gave me a high school diploma.

I finally got around to this site. I used it as an opportunity to learn Gatsbyjs, a static site generator. Highly recommended by the way!
