Brandon is a Brandon fullstack web developer, with a passion on the frontend development, specifically Vue.js. He currently working at Mcity, an automated vehicle proving grounds located at the University of Michigan. Brandon first got into web development in high school by making basic html websites, and has been working for the University of Michigan doing web development for a little over a year now. The first time Brandon used Vue was while building an account and data management SPA for the University hospital. Since then, he has grown to appreciate Vue even more and has become fully emersed in its ecosystem.
