Andy Knolla is a web developer in Boulder with a decade of technical and hands-on experience bridging software, fabrication, and field engineering. After a Web Development Immersive at Galvanize, he shipped front-end and full-stack features at IHS Markit and cut his teeth in an apprenticeship building React and .NET applications. Prior to software he spent seven years as a hydraulic engineer in the Marine Corps and several years fabricating industrial machinery, experience he now leverages as a residential carpenter and problem-solver. He excels at untangling legacy codebases and integrating new front-ends with older systems, and is comfortable moving between JavaScript/React, C#/ASP.NET, and SQL. Outside work he pursues disciplined, curiosity-driven hobbies—drawing, climbing, astronomy, and birding—that mirror his methodical approach to learning and building. This blend of military-grade maintenance rigor, fabrication skill, and software craftsmanship makes him particularly effective at practical, durable solutions.
