[email protected] What I do

Hey there, I'm Chris.

A web artisan rooted in the heart of Washington, USA. Welcome to my digital hideaway, where creativity and innovation are forefront. Picture me as the storyteller of the online world - not just coding websites, but crafting experiences that have soul. I'm here to take your vision and make it a reality, whether it's building a stunning web presence, breathing life into apps, or making internal systems work seamlessly.

Your vision is my mission, and together, we'll make it happen. But there's something that gives my work purpose and adds that extra spark to every project - faith. Being a believer has changed me in ways that I cannot put into words, but I can tell you that because of my relationship with Jesus, my heart is to ensure that every pixel, every line of code, is infused with meaning. Let's create something amazing, where the unique blend of vision and mission paint a canvas that's uniquely ours.

From big to small clients,
two things I always promise:

1
An app you will love

This is what I love to do, so I'll make sure you are happy with the results. We'll work as a team, and we'll get there!

2
A healthy freelance relationship

No dramas or difficult relationships. I'm here to make your life easier, solve problems and help you grow your business.

Chris is great! He's responsive, productive, knowledgeable, and personable. He even goes one step further to suggest improvements and optimizations to processes.

Paul Sheppard

ObserverTab, Inc.

Chris was extremely helpful and great to work with. With my minimal experience on websites and blogs, he took the time to explain terms that were foreign to me in a way that I could easily understand. Anytime I had a request to have my website updated or tweaked, he got it done in a timely manner. He is great at what he does!
