Hi, I'm Alex Morgan

Full Stack Developer building fast, thoughtful web products

I'm a full stack developer with **6+ years** of experience building web applications that people actually enjoy using. I care most about the details that users feel but rarely notice — a page that loads instantly, a form that remembers what you typed, an interface that gets out of the way. Most of my work lives at the intersection of React, TypeScript, and Node.js, with a healthy obsession for performance. When I'm not shipping code, you'll find me trail running, tinkering with mechanical keyboards, or writing about frontend architecture. ### What I'm good at - Designing and shipping production frontends at scale - API and data modeling that holds up as products grow - Performance work — profiling, budgets, and measurable wins - Working closely with designers to get the details right

Denver, CO — open to remote
