I'm a Front-End Engineer with 9 years of experience spanning multiple industries and departments. I have strong communication skills, a entrepreneurship degree, and experience in all aspects of launching and running a business. Always a strong proponent for change, I will help you achieve your goals as you help me achieve mine.
All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible.
I lead front-end development efforts at InMoment and created and ran the UI Guild.
As an employee of STG I worked as a contractor for MRM-McCann Salt Lake and InMoment as a Front-End Developer.
Worked as a liason between Development and UX. Helped to define process and implement new technologies.
Led the development efforts on the Documents product team.
Managed technology stack, built new systems, maintained systems. Everything required of a CTO at a small company.
Worked for a marketing department initially to manage web presence. Eventually moved to product development.
A ColdFusion developer learning the wonders of affiliate marketing. I rebuilt and optimized a lot of systems in the process.

I organized the user group, scheduled meetings, coordinated with speakers, and presented several times a year. Topics I presented on include:
I'm pursuing an MBA through Indiana University's Kelley Direct Online program.
After starting in computer science I discovered that I was more interested in business and switched to a business degree.
I attended BYU for a semester. I learned a lot, and moved on with my life. Ask me about it. :)
I came into this project late. There were several issues including jQuery incompatibility issues and bootstrap integration problems. I addressed all of the crucial issues as well as updated the UI to make it match the comps and be more responsive.
The client was having some problems implementing template changes in Volusion and changing the checkout process. I made the modifications they requested and provided guidance on SEO, SEM and Social Media Marketing.
I was initially contacted by the Bright Water Foundation to "finish" a site that they were working on. This led to a complete redesign of the site, implementation of the new site in WordPress, and migrating the hosting. All at a discount to help their organization move forward.
GumCo contacted me about building out the Opidemic website for the Utah State Department of Health. It was an ambitious project with a three week deadline for the initial site but we powered through it in time for them to launch a campaign at a conference. It was built on WordPress and hosted on my Amazon Web Services account.
Code Savvy is a new consulting firm looking to build their online presence through a website. I threw the site together for them in a weekend based on a theme they selected.
GumCo contacted me about building out the website for SITFO. They were looking to raise awareness for an upcoming amendment to their charter in the 2016 election. They were looking for a simple site to help convey their message to a broad audience. It was built on WordPress.
Having done a considerable amount of work for GumCo's clients they approached me about fixing some of the issues on their site. I fixed the immediate issues and encouraged them to go down the path to a complete rewrite.
VisLevel is a startup looking to revolutionize the way businesses handle task management. I built the website and the application for them as well as their API.
GumCo contacted me about this project as a potentially massive project. The Sweet Tooth Fairy was wanting to change their website and switch ecommerce platforms. I built the site on Mura CMS and migrated them from GoDaddy to Temedy for eCommerce.
Temedy is an eCommerce platform that needed to be migrated to the cloud. I performed the cloud migration and built the new angular based admin and API for the platform.
GumCo contacted me about building the website. It's built in Sitefinity CMS and hosted on the State's servers.
I performed two redesigns of the High Country Adventure website over the past decade. The latest version is built on Mura CMS.
I used to work for Simplicity Group and they still reach out to me from time to time when they need help. While contracting for them I migrated their servers from a colocational center to AWS cloud hosting. I keep their certificates up to date and fix issues with their systems as they arise.
Xcel was hosted on a personal hosting account. I migrated it to a new hosting account and performed some UI updates.
Initially contacted to help guide them through purchasing a new server I convinced them to migrate their platform to the cloud. I've been maintaining it for them and updating it as needed. It has undergone several redesigns to meet their needs.
The Go Travel Sites were integrating with a web scraping company but needed a system to automate the process. I designed and built a multi-threaded ColdFusion system to manage those requests and process them.
I contracted with Hirevue to help with Zend integration and documentation. It was short and sweet. I eventually got paid and we all moved on with our lives.
Ah, my first contract. For an insanely low price I built a custom eCommerce platform for them to sell their products online. I worked many sleepless nights and long weekends to hit the deadline but I made it.
