Hellooo, My name is Neil MacLean and I'm a full stack web developer who recently finished an apprenticeship at Nashville Software School where I learned the following languages and tools: HTML, CSS, Javascript, React, Python, Django, and SQL.
In addition to coding, I also co-founded a record label called Like You Mean It Records, which is entering its third year. Being in school while also running a small business has taught me critical skills in project management across multiple disciplines, which I believe will be invaluable for any job I have moving forward. Additionally, I am a self-taught graphic designer proficient in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, which has further enriched my understanding of user-centric design in web development. My continuous pursuit of development since completing NSS' apprenticeship has led me to become proficient in Typescript, SASS, and MUI and become certified by Microsoft in Azure's fundamentals (AZ-900).
When I'm not working, I like to spend time with my cat and girlfriend, write and record music of my own, play video games, or tend to my plants.

⚡ Fun fact: I once was on a sailboat that capsized. Needless to say, that was the last time I went on a sailboat.
