Hi! My name is Colton, and I am a Full Stack Software Developer. Becoming a father in 2019 inspired me to turn my high school coding hobby into a career, reinforcing the belief that it's never too late to pursue your dreams. I'm grateful to set an example for my sons through my determination. My natural problem-solving skills led me to software engineering, where I tackle complex challenges and explore emerging technologies.
A seasoned software engineer with four years of expertise in the full-stack JavaScript realm, with a focus on React and Node. I have a track record of developing front-end and back-end solutions for a wide range of clients, demonstrating my adaptability and versatility in the industry. As a Software Engineer at Bootpack Digital, LLC in Salt Lake City, UT, since May 2022, I've led two significant e-learning projects using Next.js, Sanity, and TailwindCSS.
These projects modernized the course catalog by replacing outdated interactive designs with cutting-edge web applications, including progressive web apps.
My responsibilities include managing feature implementation timelines, client-development scope meetings, and ensuring quick ticket response times. I possess proficiency in Project Management, Next.js, Gatsby.js, Laravel, React.js, PHP, JavaScript, TailwindCSS, CSS3, HTML5, Node.js, and TypeScript.
Additionally, I streamlined shipping processes by creating an output file that matches proprietary shipping software data, reducing daily workloads by about 20%. This improvement was achieved using PHP and the MVC design pattern.
Completed Thinkful's Online Full-Stack Software Engineer Program in Jul 2020.

Projects included a Trello-style note app focusing on context, state, and server integration, as well as a RESTful API web app for retrieving random recipes via GET requests and displaying them to users.
