ABOUT ME
MAX MASTALERZ
Full Stack Developer & Software Engineer
Hiring people to write code is not the same as hiring people to design and build durable, usable, dependable software.
Hello, I am a software engineering student from Guelph, Ontario. Writing code is my passion, yet software design is the key to writing it well. With a few years experience seeing the tech industry grow I have learned how to create solid web, mobile, and desktop applications.
I currently study as a 5th year co-op student at the University of Guelph. To me, seeing the field evolve throughout the years has focused me on keeping up-to-date with the most current technologies. I find that it is always exciting to see the impact a new software release can have on your applications, whether that is negative or positive. I’ve worked with the nitty-gritty frustations of design, onto the excitements of real-time applications. Whatever the challenge, I do my best to learn and improve.
