Mannu Arneja

I am a full stack web developer currently focused on JavaScript and Ruby, armed with associated frameworks/libraries: Rails, React, Redux. I'm also a writer, musician, and relentlessly interested in the intersection of art, tech, and philosophy. My professional growth has taken me into diverse roles such as educator, business analyst, and system/network administrator. I'm excited to learn from new perspectives, and bring creativity and analytic rigor to new challenges.

With over 3 years of experience as an IT Professional, I've developed a methodological approach to solving problems that is informed by my training in creative and critical thinking.
