Salvatore Mitrano

Software Engineer

Entrepreneur

I started to study my passion as autodidact. As Autodidact, I learnt a variety of programming languages, such as Html & Css, Php, Javascript, Python, Java and I also understood my second passion: Entrepreneurship. My first website was called funnyncheap.it, a new way of gaming and winning prizes online. Unfortunately, I step in a market that was heavily regulated by the Italian government. Therefore, I had to give up with the idea, but I learnt to “Fail Fast, Fail often.” Then, I decided to come to the U.S. to study Computer Science. During these years I came in contact with more technologies, frameworks development styles.
