When a new Object is formed, the JS engine adds a __proto__ property to the new object. This points to the prototype object of the constructor function. All JS objects take in, or inherit, properties and methods from a prototype. For instance, Dog objects inherit from Dog.prototype. String objects inherit from String.prototype...

Roughly a week and half ago, my wife and I were hanging out with some friends from our church who own a Roofing business. They’ve been in business for roughly a year or so, and they talked to us about how they wanted a website, but couldn’t afford a professional.

I'm a Full Stack Web Developer, with a passion for creativity and making abstract ideas come to life. Before venturing into Software Engineering, I sang opera professionally, taught Middle School choir for 4 years, and led several community/church choirs.

I love creativity, helping others find their inspiration, seeing things come to life, opera, hiking, running, reading, music, and the arts. Musical creativity and integrity makes notes on a page come alive. In a similar way, lines of code bring life to our web browsers and connect all of us together digitally! Let's connect some time and share ideas!
