Available to hire
Hi, I’m Ian Fletcher—a web developer who thrives at the intersection of front-end craftsmanship and back-end logic. I have hands-on experience with JavaScript/TypeScript, React/Next.js, Python, GraphQL, and REST APIs, delivering modern, scalable web applications with a focus on clean UX and robust architecture.
Before turning to tech, I built strong people skills in sales and hospitality, learning how to collaborate, communicate clearly, and deliver excellent customer service. I bring that teamwork mindset to every project and enjoy creating polished, user-friendly experiences that delight customers.
