About Me
Hi! My name is Andrew, and I am a full-stack developer based out
of Salt Lake City, Utah. I love building out features from the
database schema all the way to what's presented to the user. My
main areas of focus are real-time systems (WebSockets!),
responsive and accessible front-ends, and performant back-end APIs
and services.
Some technologies I've been working with recently:
- Node.js
- .NET Core
- PostgreSQL
- TypeScript
- React
- Vue
