Developer
Live music afficianado
Serious coffee-drinker

Jason Goldstein

I’m a web technologist in Washington, DC, working primarily with Front End and Python stacks since 2010.

I drink my coffee extra black, made movies as an independent film group I co-founded called Be The Shoe, have a Beagle puppy named Ziggy who is the mayor of D.C., recently caught the travel bug, and see as much live music as I possibly can.

These days I don’t pay much attention to social media. If you want to say hello, just email me.
