Hello! My name is Justen Quirante, and I am a Web Developer with a passion for technology and designing products that people love and enjoy.
I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in the Health and Human Sciences from Loyola Marymount University roughly 7 years ago, but quickly found my way into the tech industry upon graduation. Most of my tech career thus far has been in Quality Assurance for the Gaming Industry where I've been fortunate to be a part of several AAA title releases. Some of my duties involve developing and maintaining test strategy standards across the department, test planning and execution for features being developed for various internal and external facing products, and collaborating directly with engineers on software development and test in an Agile team environment.
Working hand in hand with the engineers everyday has been a tremendous experience and motivated me to learn how to code. Over the past few years, I've dove into learning different front-end technologies on my own. Ultimately, I decided to make a full commitment into web development, and enrolled in the LearningFuze Accelerate Web Development Program to gain mentorship from Senior developers. During my tenure, we've learned best coding practices in Full-Stack Development using HTML, CSS, Javascript, Git, jQuery, React, and Redux.
The experience has been amazing so far as I've learned so much in such a short time. For anyone interested, I would love to chat about my experience or any other questions you may have. Cheers!
