01. About Me
Hello! My name is Lance Morales and I enjoy creating things that make people's lives easier. My interest in programming started back in 2010 when I started playing GTA, Counter Strike and DOTA where I was inspired to create my own game someday.
Fast-forward to today, I'm a Software Engineer at Gemango with 2+ years of professional experience. I specialize in full-stack development using Laravel, Angular, and WordPress. At Gemango, I've worked on security vulnerability fixes, developed RESTful APIs, implemented PDF generation systems, and built highly customizable web applications. I also had the privilege to work at Accenture, a Fortune Global 500 company, as a Software Engineer Intern, and gained valuable QA experience at CocoTech Solutions.
