Tonic Inc. Digital Consulting
Nov 2021 – Dec 2023
At Tonic, I was a full stack engineer at a digital consulting firm, building web and mobile applications for a variety of clients who needed a strong technology partner. The consulting model meant rapidly adapting to new tech stacks, client domains, and team structures — often leading the development effort on green-field projects from day one.
Scope of Work
During this period I independently built and delivered 3 websites with embedded React applications, REST API integrations, information architecture, and content management. I developed two mobile apps for non-profit organizations in React Native, picking up the framework through on-the-job learning. Both apps shipped to their respective user bases and remain in use.
I prototyped, developed, and integrated front-end marketing code solutions for gathering business data used by over 10,000 insurance professionals. For a private equity firm (Warburg Pincus), I produced ten dashboard visualizations for financial data management, creating a more intuitive, faster data analysis tool for a firm of 300+ deal professionals. The Warburg Pincus work involved complex tabbed interfaces for investment valuations, multi-page reporting, and sophisticated financial data presentation.
