Hi, my name is

Ryan Kriz

Fullstack Developer | Systems Administrator

I am a developer, an occasional UI/UX designer, and an administrator who spends too much time creating web-apps to do the administrating.

    6 years ago I decided I'd try my hand at creating a web tool for an online game I had been playing at the time. Now, I still create tools like these, they're just much nicer.


    Primarily though, my focus has been on building out my skillsets by learning multiple different frameworks and languages. I've done this by taking on many different projects for fun, as well as working with different companies to build, or enhance their online presence. Always ensuring that the technology serves as a bridge, rather than a barrier.


    Professionally, I've had opportunity to work on the CareersNow! project from it's early planning, worked with multiple clients at Painted Robot, and developed a suite of web tools and dashboards now used across all of TC Industries' locations.


    In my free time, I'm still creating and managing some tools for fun. And when I'm not nose-deep in an editor, I can usually be found in the trees camping, or at home trying new recipes.
