About Me
I'm Jess Hendricks, a senior front-end and full-stack developer with over a decade of professional experience. I specialize in building rich, performant web applications with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Node.js.
I've worked across energy, wellness, education, and e-commerce sectors. At Hartree Partners, I led UI development for data-intensive dashboards. At iFit, I worked with Auth0 and GraphQL in a collaborative team setting. I also have experience with AWS, Rails, React Native, and more.
Beyond code, I’m also a musician and composer — you can check out my music at existentialmusic.com. I also created dungeonmaster.guru, a helpful D&D toolset.
