About
Who is Gareth Perilli?
Hi. This is my portfolio site I have created to show my projects and interests. I am a web developer based in Japan, self-taught to begin with, but now with a LeWagon bootcamp training in Tokyo.
My interest in web development started several years ago, and I have been working with front end Javascript for about 3 years. Audio programming, is my other interest, and this started many years ago when I studied Electronic Music in the UK.
I've done freelance work for ssl.com, an American company providing SSL certificates, bonjola.com, an Australian e-commerce business, Lisa, a German Hi-tech services company working in the aeronautics and AI sectors, and several other small organizations.
From 2022 to 2023 I was working for Bee2B in Tokyo as a web developer. My day-to-day work there was within an international development team using mainly Rails and Vue.
