Hi, my name is Nico del Castillo and I am a web developer.

I live and work in Los Angeles, California. I grew up in and around local underground music scenes, and amateur musicianship brought me in contact with various web projects, so that’s how I learned to code.

I attended a liberal arts college and obtained a BA in English and Comparative Literary Studies, but somehow ended up returning to web development and began working in the social media and marketing industries.

Before I knew it, more than 5 years passed, and today I find myself with a completely different skillset than I set out to study in college.

When asked where I see myself in 5 years’ time, my answer is simply, “on the internet”. That’s as specific as it gets if working on the web is as much an adventure as it has been for me. The web is unpredictable, and that’s what makes it an exciting place to carve out a career. I can’t see myself doing anything else.

Also, I am a big fan of coffee.
