I am Tony Gottschalk

Full Stack Web Developer

About me

Hello, my name is Tony! I began my career in Information Technology after an initial commitment to the U.S. Army. Now after some time, I have transitioned into the amazing world of coding, software, and web development. So here I am, a Full Stack Web Developer.

I am currently seeking new opportunities for a Full Stack Web Engineer position. My interests include all things JavaScript, Node.js, and React. I enjoy Web and RESTful APIs, AJAX, PostgreSQL, MVC, and more recently, Redux and Flux. I am excited about taking on the fast-pace world of technology and I work diligently every day on honing my craft to become a top Web Developer in my field.

I would like the next company I work for to envision exciting opportunities for its future. I want to work with others who are energetic and compassionate and who want to see their team and their company succeed. Ideally, my new position will allow me to be a part of this type of culture.
