Hire Me
Bio
I'm a full-stack developer from North Idaho. I'm ridiculously good at building modern JS apps using React, Redux, GraphQL, and node.js. I'm a polyglot that writes about code stuff at MostlyUseless.space. I would love to work on tools for developers or designers, or both -- the future of dev is design.
What I Can Do
full-stack modern JavaScript (using Next.js, Deno etc)
React + Redux + GraphQL + node apps
Ruby and Rails apps
Modern Clojure
Really good at writing technical stuff. Hire me to write your docs!
If you want to hire me full time I can easily ramp up on anything. I have a particular fondness for functional programming languages like Clojure, Haskell, and Reason. I have dabbled in a bit of everything from C++ to Prolog. Checkout my GitHub or read my writings MostlyUseless.space
