Christopher Givelas is an application developer with nine years of full-stack experience, currently building and supporting cloud-first React/TypeScript services while maintaining legacy C# .NET desktop software.

He values "mechanical sympathy," favoring deep systems understanding and efficient, predictable implementations over flashy shortcuts.
