Nick Pearson is a seasoned web designer and software engineer with 12 years of experience specializing in Ruby on Rails, front-end development, and mobile web design. Based in Overland Park, Kansas, he combines strong Java and J2EE foundations from early systems roles with a long-running focus on responsive HTML, CSS, and JavaScript interfaces. As founder-style lead at Banyan Theory since 2007, he blends hands-on Rails development with practical UX-driven design work to deliver polished web products. His background includes enterprise and health-tech projects where reliable, maintainable Java/Rails integrations were required. Nick’s dual BS in Management Information Systems and Computer Science underpins a pragmatic approach that balances user experience, maintainability, and business needs. He’s the kind of engineer who moves comfortably between backend systems and pixel-level front-end refinements, bringing a designer’s eye to engineering trade-offs.
