My name is John Nelson, and I'm a 55-year-old Full Stack Developer based in Rockwall, Texas. I specialize in designing, building, and deploying end-to-end web applications — from intuitive front-end interfaces to scalable back-end systems.
I’ve worked with a wide range of technologies over the years, and I enjoy staying current as the ecosystem evolves. My focus is on writing clean, maintainable code and building applications that solve real problems, not just look impressive on the surface.
I’m comfortable working solo or as part of a collaborative team, and I’m intentional about writing code that future developers won’t curse me for. I also mentor newer developers when I can, because good engineering culture matters just as much as good engineering.
When I’m not working, you can probably find me refining side projects, reading up on new tooling trends, or annoying my coffee machine with “one more cup.” I believe development is equal parts craft and curiosity — and I try to bring both to every project I take on.
