Hi, I'm Ethan Perry

I'm originally from Denver, Colorado.

My current work focuses on software development, and my background in data center operations, web design, and digital marketing gives me a unique perspective on how technical problem-solving intersects with creative thinking.

While I enjoy optimizing infrastructure, analyzing data, and tackling other meticulous tasks, I’m equally passionate about the creative side of my work.

I’m inspired by people who challenge the norm and question assumptions, and I try to bring that mindset to both my work and my writing.

On this portfolio site, you'll find a mix of my professional projects, technical experiments, and SaaS ventures, alongside my writing, including essays, book reviews, coding tutorials, poems, and more.

Outside of work, I spend my time playing piano, exercising, writing, hiking, and exploring new programming ideas.
