About me
Developer.

My story
I'm Alex Morgan — a full-stack developer and visual designer based in San Francisco. I've spent the past 8 years building digital products that live at the intersection of engineering rigor and aesthetic sensibility.
My path into tech started unconventionally: I studied graphic design before teaching myself to code. That background shapes how I approach every project — I believe the best software is both technically sound and genuinely beautiful.
Outside of client work, I contribute to open-source projects, write about front-end architecture, and experiment with generative art. When I'm not at my desk, I'm usually behind a camera or hiking the trails around the Bay Area.
