About

Tony Monda

New York-based Software Engineer

I have worked extensively with component-based JavaScript libraries such as React and Vue, and have over a year of professional back-end experience with Laravel, as well as mobile development experience with React Native. I have a flair for design and, while highly proficient with advanced CSS techniques, I like to cut through the front-end jungle with tools like Tailwind and styled-components. I am most interested in the ways tech can be used to purposefully generate greater accessibility on a wide scale, though game development is also a side-passion of mine.

More than anything, I love a good challenge.
