JavaScript Developer in Cedar, MI, United States

Pluto Post is an amazing post production studio working on everything from TV commercials to movies.

For my own wedding, I wanted something fun for the save-the-date. So I built a fully interactive JavaScript game about me and my wife. With full audio and 8-bit graphics and both platform and top-down style game engines, playing out a gamified version of meeting and dating my wife. It was a big hit, and a lot of fun to make and play.

When SorbaView developed new medical Shield technology that prevented IV lines from being pulled out, they wanted a 3D interactive demo of the technology to show to professionals in the field. Their normal advertising agency didn’t have the skillset to make such a thing so I was brought in.

Hyperr is an amazing tech startup working with creating user-driven polling for eCommerce websites. As the main front-end engineer on this project, I've had the pleasure of building the entire polling and poll building web apps (both being React-based projects). Hyperr has patents pending on these interfaces and is doing amazing things with them with some very cool clients. I couldn't be happier to work with them and build their interfaces.

I worked on this project full-stack—from design to a React.js based front-end to a Node.js/MongoDB based back-end—and created a robust REST API and a beautifully animated and clean front end with plenty of data visualization. It's a perfect example of my more business-oriented interfaces.

I'm a member of the RefluxJS project, one of the most popular Flux libraries around. Most notably, I'm the creator of its entire and complete modern ES6 interface; built it to work idiomatically with modern React. It is used to handle the data flow of tens of thousands of React-based projects around the world.
