My name is Colton. I have been a web developer professionally for about 5 years.

Why me?:

I am a modern web developer. Although I have doing web development since the days of MySpace profiles and <table>-based layouts, I use all the latest tooling and fancy tricks. I am looking to join a software development team.

I am a novice engineer: a good fit for an engineering team but a bad fit for a company looking for one senior-level engineer to lead engineering overall.

After working on SMB websites for years, I want to move on to join a SaaS team that delivers a product instead. While I do appreciate my current job, it does not fully utilize my skill set.

Bottom line: I love to build things. I want to be the guy on your team that not only helps architect systems but also makes them look pretty.

Let's chat!
