Top SchoolMike Hodnick is a Principal Engineer and independent consultant with over two decades of professional experience delivering full-stack web applications across .NET (C#/.NET Core) and Node.js/JavaScript ecosystems.

Based in Minnesota, he prefers direct, email-first conversations and maintains a focus on .NET Core and JavaScript-centric projects that balance technical depth with business impact.
