Developer Profile

Fullstack developer in training

I'm Frank Smith III, a fullstack developer and student at Fullstack Academy based in Mahwah, New Jersey. I was born in Brooklyn, New York, and I'm building a solid foundation in JavaScript, HTML, CSS, and core full-stack practices.

I approach code the way I approach training: set a plan, execute with focus, and iterate until it's right. I keep my work straightforward and practical. If you want to see the discipline behind the code, check the photo stories that showcase jiujitsu wins, Spartan grit, and developer mindset in action.
