Blumenfeld and I went to Los Angeles this weekend to surprise one of our best friends, Offer, on his birthday. Little did we know, we’d also be celebrating his engagement. Congratz!

Ever wondered how the internet works? Well you can find out by attending my intro to web development class.
The class is going to cover the essential information to understand basic principles of front end web development. It will give you the required knowledge to tinker with your blogs and understand new concepts you’d like to learn on your own. Most of the skills build on eachother, so it’s pretty important to come to each class in order to keep up.
