About me
Hey there—my name is Chris.
I'm a passionate full-stack software engineer with an emphasis currently on front-end development.
I'm originally from Missouri, but decided to come out to Colorado to be closer to nature. In my free-time, I enjoy going on hikes and runs, biking, drinking coffee, video gaming, and spending time with my wife, Karla, our cat (Zora), and dog (Dora). We went to the sand dunes this past fall, so I tried to run it (extremely difficult)!
I'm always on the lookout to collaborate with others that get as fired up as I do about awesome software. So if that's what you're looking for, continue reading to get to know me some more and see if we're a match!
Work
Vivian Health

I'm currently part of the mobile team at Vivian Health, responsible for all things involving the company's Android and iOS app. In addition to working on the company's mobile app, I'm also the team's release engineer, lead our team ceremonies, and occasionally contribute to the company's web app and API. Our mobile app is a React Native app that uses Detox for E2E testing, and our web app is uses Next.js. On the API and database, we use Express and Postgres, using Sequelize as our ORM. In addition to Postgres, we also use Algolia to power our search functionality.

Showcase
Portfolio V2
2021
It's been a couple of years since I've last updated my portfolio website, so I decided to re-approach it. I really enjoy using React and Gatsby for simple static websites, so I used those again. This time around, I did everything in typescript instead of javascript, and also tried a new component library, Chakra. I also used Framer Motion a little to animate the colorful blobs in the background.

Portfolio V1
2019
I didn't have a place to showcase my life's work to the rest of the world, so I made one! I really wanted to do something with React, which is what led me to discovering Gatsby: a static site generator that's built on top of React.
