About Me

Hi, I'm Jon - a web developer with over a decade of experience. I'm also a web architect, team lead, and director, dedicated to creating user-friendly web applications with clean and scalable code.

I'm well-versed in full stack development, but my specialty is in frontend development and architecture, with a focus on React. I have a passion for building clean, intuitive, and accessible user interfaces.
