Experience
- GSRetrofithttps://www.gsretrofit.com
A React-based CRM for managing real estate inspections, agents, escrow agents, and more. I developed a custom front-end and back-end solution to schedule and manage web scraping, which fueled the acquisition of new clients. With the automated data collection, the company went from a solo operation to a company of 15.
- Kongrads
A platform for relatives and others to easily gift recent graduates with money. I completed the front end using Gatsby for SEO and built a custom back end in Node.js using Postgres as the data store and a GraphQL/Dataloader API interface. The app is connected to Stripe and allows users to quickly and easily send money to registered recipients.
