Christian Schmidt

Full Stack Software Developer

I’m a software developer with a CS degree and real-world experience building products across web3, marketing tech, and web applications. I specialize in full-stack development with a frontend focus, and I enjoy writing technical content and exploring new technologies.

My background blends software engineering, sales, and entrepreneurship - bringing a bias for shipping fast, learning on the fly, and solving real problems with clean, effective code.
