Hi, I'm Matthew McGrath, a California-based Software Developer and enthusiast of beautiful, functional design.

Since writing my first line of code at the age of 15, I have had an unbound curiosity for programming and the problem-solving it encapsulates. While pursuing a Bachelor's in Computer Science, I began developing indie games. After years of dedication and over 100,000 lines of code, I was able to release two completely-independent games for the Xbox 360 Indie Games platform. I also collaborated with others in testing and developing their dream games.

My passion for programming finally led me to where I am now: a Frontend Web Developer. After years of disciplined self-learning of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React, I am eager to help connect the world through fully-responsive, impactful web applications.
