Hire the Best Mobile Freelancers in Chicago, IL

I’m a full-stack software engineer with 5+ years of experience freelancing full-time. I’ve worked with clients ranging from solo entrepreneurs to public software companies with more teams than anyone can keep track of. Whether you need someone to build your project from scratch or quietly blend into a larger team, I’m your person. What I Do (Besides Write Code) * Tech Stack: JavaScript, TypeScript, Next.js, React, Node.js, AWS, Vercel—basically all the tools you’ve heard of but might not want to deal with yourself. * Top Rated Plus Status: It’s like a gold star for freelancers, but they don’t actually send you a star. * Communication: I’ll keep you updated without flooding your inbox. Balance is key. * Project Management: Things will get done on time. No chaos. No drama. * Guidance: If you’re not sure what you need, I can help figure it out. Think of me as a consultant who also writes the code. Why Me? I’m adaptable enough to fit into any project setup. Need someone to work independently? No problem. Have a team that needs another developer? I’ll jump in without causing ripples. My approach is straightforward: deliver quality work, keep communication clear, and avoid unnecessary meetings whenever possible. If you’re looking for someone who knows their way around modern web technologies and doesn’t need hand-holding, let’s talk. I promise to keep things professional and maybe even mildly entertaining.

I am a freelance videographer and photographer, as well as a web designer, living in Chicago, Illinois. I have been working in the video field professionally for over 8 years now and have been working freelance in Chicago for the last year and a half. I have done just about everything you can imagine on a video/film shoot, so I am comfortable in almost any job you need, but my areas of expertise lie in directing, writing, camera operation, cinematography, and editing. I am a graduate of the year-long Harold Ramis Film School program at The Second City. There I learned the fine art of comedic storytelling. It taught me how to craft engaging stories and characters both on the page and in the editing suite. It also taught me the Second City philosophy of "Yes, and" which I feel is an essential tool in professional work regardless of what you do. It teaches you to always build upon and enrich the ideas of others and never tear them down. I feel that's just a good life lesson to abide by I used to work at a video equipment rental house and between that job and my 8 years of work I've had hands-on experience with almost every camera system you can imagine. I cut my teeth on RED camera systems (RED One, Scarlet-X, Epic Dragon, Epic-W) and I've used just about every type of Canon camera they've put out. My personal daily driver is a Fujifilm X-T3, a newer mirrorless hybrid camera that shoots 10-Bit 4K ProRes 422 up to 60fps and up to 400mbps. It creates a beautiful image for video and even better for photography, which I also do on the side as a headshot/portrait and product photographer. I'm a firm believer that you should always be educating yourself and getting better at your craft. I am a constantly evolving filmmaker and content creator who loves collaborating with others, and I would love to share my knowledge and expertise with as many people as possible.
