About Me
Howdy, I am Ben Tyler. I am a full stack developer based out of Cool, CA. I specialize in developing aesthetic and functional websites and applications. You can explore my portfolio below.
Writing
I like to write almost as much as I like to build. I write about dashboards, maps, freelancing, music, and the outdoors. If this interests you too, please join my mailing list to get updates whenever I publish new content.
