Designing intuitively so others work productively.
See Resume →↗My name is Jan Santiago.
CS Student, Class of 2025
I'm a Puerto Rican full-stack developer and musician living in the United States. I'm currently a student at Newton College & Career Academy in the Computer Science pathway. My goal is to build valuable experiences for people through intuitive software.
For frontend, I use Next.js and Tailwind. For backend, I typically use Spring with Java. I'm always looking to learn new things and improve my skills.
Outside of that, I work at Chick-fil-A as a Team Captain. I've been working there for 2 years, and have learned a lot about leadership and teamwork. For fun, I like to play video games, spend time with friends, and listen to music (I play piano, too).
