Get to know me!

This is Josh Garofalo and I'm a aspiring Frontend Web Developer located in Western New York. I've done remote projects for, and collaborated with talented people to create an end result that is simple, and functional for both internal business users and customer use.

I'm a bit of a nerd always trying new frameworks, softwares etc. Over the years, I've used many different software packages, freeware/shareware, stackoverflow, to get the job done. With the propensity to learn quickly I will tackle a challenge and find a way to make it work. While I may not know every language and syntax I can usually read through the code and understand what is happening to make edits as needed, and not afraid to ask for help.

I have the propensity to learn new things in a reasonable amount of time in order to start a project.

Currently traveling the SalesForce Trailhead to explore and train for that platform, click here see where I am at so far.

Projects

FruitRidgeTools.com

I managed this website with approx 20k SKUs and used css overrides to adjust the template has needed. This was integrated with Channel Advisor.

  • Javascript Alert Banners
  • Automated In-Stock Email Notifications
  • Lottee Files
  • BigCommerce

LakeSideIndustries.net

Shopping cart migration for Lakeside Industries located in Bemus Point, NY

  • Volusion migrated to 3D-Cart.
  • Added schema for structured data to improve SEO
  • Submitted Image Map to Google
  • New payment processors to decrease abandoned carts.
  • Modified the checkout page to include more information from each product.
  • 3D-Cart

I did this project to learn Python scripting for automation.

At Fruit Ridge Tools LLC I was a E-Commerce Specialist (Technical Lead). We needed to take a stock image showing quanity of 1 and duplicate it x times into mult-packs by duplication and stacking the photo by rows and columns.

Once this code was confirmed to work I adjusted it to perform this task no a folder of images.

End Result was increased visibility in search and sales without having to photograph all single/multi-packs.

import numpy
import cv2
import os
for filename in os.listdir('C:Users'):
img = cv2.imread('C:somedirectoryPhoto-EA-3.JPG', )
img = cv2.imread('filename')
tile = numpy.tile(img, (2, 5, 1));
# cv2.imshow('Tile', tile)
cv2.imwrite('filemname', tile)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
