Alexander Yang

I'm a full-stack developer using TypeScript and Next.js to turn vision into polishedproductsand the systems behind them. 

I build web apps, internal tooling, and infrastructure to ship polished, impactful experiences and shape effective organizations.

While my background is primarily in software, I use an education in design, user experience, and media production to add impactful velocity to collaborations in small and growing teams.

Recently, at Center Centre, I cut website development timelines in half (with a component library and encoded design system), streamlined bottom-of-funnel UX (with front-end features and optimization), and saved the team >25 hours a week (with cross-functional internal tools).
