Jacinto is a Senior Developer with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation with a diverse background, including 5 years experience as a teacher in Canada and South Korea. He has had a passion for technology from a very young age, which led him to build his first computer at age 12 and start using design software at 16. As an instructor for the Zero To Mastery Academy, Jacinto combines these artistic and critical thinking skills to create high quality projects that will add real value to student’s portfolios and jump start their careers in web development.

Starting out learning something new can be challenging and there are so many resources available that it can be overwhelming. Jacinto understands that for some, bootcamps and post-secondary education are too time-consuming or expensive for many to consider. With that in mind, he does his best to create the highest quality courses that are inexpensive and beginner-friendly.

As a self-taught developer, Jacinto started from scratch and learned enough to land a Senior Developer job after only 4 months working through online courses. He knows it is possible to upgrade your skills and switch careers without spending excessive time or money. He couldn’t be happier to be in this exciting and growing industry and aims to provide students with the same opportunity.
