Stuart Wood
Front-end Engineer
About
I'm a San Diego, CA based front-end engineer who has been designing/developing professionally for 3+ years. I have 7+ years experience in Digital Analytics and Marketing Tech in various roles including implementation, marketing, client services, and business development. Current competencies include React.js, responsive user interface component design, data visualization, and Vanilla JS SDKs. I value code-as-communication and strive to write well-documented, maintainable programs. I enjoy learning deeply and broadly, and strive to be 'T-shaped' in my knowledge.
I love being a developer because I have the privilege of spending my working hours creatively solving problems, learning, and engaging with really smart people.
In my free time I enjoy international travel, surfing, gardening, cooking, and trying out new restaurants/breweries. I also dabble in performing at open mics.
