About Me
Who I Am...
I'm Chris. I’m an independent web developer living just outside Watertown, NY.
I am addicted to learning new things and have a passion for solving problems through carefully crafted software.
I enjoy meeting people, talking code, helping clients design products and building software to make my own life, or someone else’s, a little bit easier. I also like collaborating on community projects and volunteeting where I can to make the world a little bit better.
When I’m not coding for work or fun, I spend my time with my wife, daughter, family and friends. I love being outdoors, in the garden or in the kitchen; trying something new, or cooking up a secret recipe (that I will gladly share).
