Hi, I'm Lou!
A Full Stack Developer!

About Me

I'm a energized Web Developer and Musician, looking to bring creativity into everything I do.

Lou Arnos

Fullstack Developer | Musician | Audio Engineer | Economist

I am a full stack web developer, who came to coding by way of music. Music has always been a passion of mine. During college I studied electronic music and economics. I got my first exposure to computer programming during courses for these two topics. After having worked in recording studios in Los Angeles and event production for a number of years, I decided I wanted a job that was more intellectually stimulating and had more regular hours. I began to dabble more in coding and fell in love with it. General Assembly's Web Development Immersive program seemed like the best next step in my journey. Ultimately, I would like to integrate my passion for music into my love of computer programming, but for now I am looking to get experience and hone my skills as a developer.
