Spencer Haka Email & Phone Number

Having grown up in the great (and cold) state of Wisconsin, lived in France for a stint after college, and now a resident of Colorado for over a decade, I've developed an eclectic mix of experiences and interests over the years. In my time, I've worked a lot of different jobs: retail, building services (read: janitor), math & science tutor, and I was even a stadium vendor at Sea World for a summer. Most of my experience is in home building as a construction project manager, supervising construction projects from start to finish, when I could finally hand the new home off to a happy and satisfied customer. But there was something about this work that wasn’t fulfilling in the way I wanted.Leaning on my past for insight into a career-change, my varied experiences have given me insight into what I want and expect out of a career—to always be learning, trying new things, and setting new goals. I am now in the field of tech because the work is… you guessed it, eclectic! What I love most about tech, and particularly programming, is the ability to set out with a vision and see it through to its deliverable fruition. And considering all of the technologies, frameworks, and languages, the possibilities are endless.So that’s why I am here now, and maybe why you’re reading this—I’m a front-end software developer skilled in JavaScript, TypeScript, React, HTML, CSS, and a variety of backend API and database technologies including Node, Express, RESTful APIs, GraphQL, and PostgreSQL. I’m growth-minded, always looking to improve myself. I’m a people-person, easy to talk to and easy to know. And I love building, fixing, and improving anything (homes or web applications) so much that it's sometimes hard to tear myself away from the work I’ve started. I would love to bring these experiences and skills to a company who is looking for a developer who can add immediate value to a team, and contribute meaningfully to how they build, develop and maintain their products.
