Chris Keenan Email & Phone Number

Chris Keenan is a Software Engineer & Entrepreneur | Advisor at LSEG (London Stock Exchange Group). He possess expertise in c#, html5, jquery, javascript, illustrator and 44 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I have worked with Chris as both a teammate as well as an independent contrator. I have about four developers total that I call on when I absolutely need to know it will get done right and as close as possible to my initial design. Chris is at the top of that list. He is talented, interested, and always looking to learn something new. He has never told me "it can't be done" in a kick-off meeting, and he has ALWAYS attempted to make even the impossible work. That is a tell-tale sign of a truly talented developer. He understands and appreciates what good design and user experience mean for a product or application and has the ability to translate complex designs into functional and elegant final pieces. With a skill set that is extra deep he can specialize and give you an integral part of your overall project or he can go from front-end development to back-end buildout, handling the entire process start to finish. I've worked with Chris on projects ranging from simple brochure sites, to applications, to full-on, custom, CMS-driven eCommerce projects. I've never been less than completely satisfied with the final result and that's saying a lot coming from me, 'cause I am one picky guy. As a designer there is nothing I appreciate more than intelligent feedback and logical arguments for or against a feature vs just being told it can't be done. To me, an off-the-bat "no" is a sign of A: a dev that doesn't know as much as they claim or B: laziness. Chris has not only never refused to look into something, but he is quite obsessive about finding a solution, sometimes after even I had given up. I can't recommend Chris enough as a developer and a colleague. He's a pleasure to work with, always interested in cutting edge technology and solutions and extremely talented to boot. He's good in any capacity – either as a team member or as an independent contractor. I know he's always one of the the first I call and usually the first developer I recommend to others." and "Chris is a passionate developer who is equally talented at obsessing over the details of a front-end UI as he is developing a framework for a data access layer on the back-end. He has a natural curiosity for new technology and independently picks up new skills quickly. He is also great at communicating with less-technical people and bridging the divide between them and the engineering team."

Listed skills include C#, Html5, Jquery, Javascript, and 45 others.
