Hoc Phan is a technologist with a wide range of experiences in frontend development, cloud computing, and big data.

Hoc worked on many JavaScript projects in the past by teaching himself the framework using various online sources. He was one of the first few developers who tested Ionic for its feasibility as a JavaScript replacement of the native language of a device. He wrote the Ionic Cookbook (for more information, visit https://www.amazon.com/Ionic-Cookbook-Hoc-Phan/dp/1785287974), which was very well received. He has worked for both start-ups and large companies. By frequently speaking at local meetups as well as cloud computing/big data industry events and conferences, he learns from other experts. He holds an MBA degree from the University of Washington's Michael G. Foster School of Business.
