About Me

Jorge Felico Family

Curious to know my story? Here it is:

I was born on March 9th, 1990 in Banes, Cuba. At the age of 8, I immigrated to the United States in 1998. Since then, I have had the pleasure of working in various roles and positions that have helped me grow both professionally and personally.

I started my career as an assistant property manager at the Starks Building in downtown Louisville, KY, where I gained valuable experience in managing properties and working with clients. Later, I transitioned into the field of web development and worked as a web developer at TMP Worldwide, where I honed my skills in web development technologies such as HTML, SASS, and Javascript.

From there, I went on to work as a web applications developer at Louisville Metro Government and Global Payments. These experiences allowed me to expand my skillset and gain a deeper understanding of the development process, growing my skills on react, angular, typescript, webpack, and nextjs.

Currently, I work on some exciting open source projects such as DateDreamer and RestaurantGrades. DateDreamer is a calendar library that provides pre-built components for websites, making it easier for developers to provide a way of allowing the user to pick dates on a form. RestaurantGrades is a project close to my heart, which allows Louisville KY citizens to search for and see the health inspection grades and violations of their favorite restaurants.

In my free time, I enjoy exploring new technologies and working on personal projects. I'm passionate about making a positive impact on the world through technology and believe that every individual has the power to make a difference.

Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about me. Please feel free to explore my website and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or would like to work together on a project.
