About Me

Here's a bit about myself and what I do:

My name is Chris, and I'm a self-motivated and dynamic front-end web developer who currently works at Oregon PERS. At this Oregon state agency, I am currently developing a new internal site that will be used by hundreds of PERS employees on a daily basis. I also support the Oregon.gov/PERS site, which provides resources for hundreds of thousands of PERS members.

I have a background in commercial photography, and I hold a certificate in Web Programming from Harvard University in addition to a Bachelor of Arts in Music.

One of my favorite web development projects is a React & Firebase smart shopping list app that I helped build with three other talented developers at The Collab Lab.

Skills: JavaScript, React, HTML/CSS, SASS, Python, Django, Git/Github, Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom, Commercial Photography, & Music.
