Hi, I'm Jesse Skinner.
I'm a self-employed web developer with over two decades of experience. I love learning new things, finding ways to improve, and sharing what I've learned with others.
I get the most joy from speeding up websites, reducing server costs, fixing difficult bugs, and modernizing legacy applications. I'd love to hear about your challenges and see how I can help!
