Available for new projects

Hi, I'm Alex Chen

Full-stack developer and designer with 5+ years building products that live at the intersection of clean code and great UX. I care deeply about performance, accessibility, and the details that turn good software into great software.

When I'm not pushing pixels or writing TypeScript, you'll find me experimenting with generative art, contributing to open-source, or photographing the city at golden hour.
