Full-Stack Developer
EricMerritt
I build things that work, break things that don't, and wear loud shirts to interviews.

I'm a full-stack developer who builds practical tools and applications from the ground up. I've worked with Node.js, Express, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, and modern frontend frameworks — and I run my own Linux server because I like knowing how things work all the way down.
When I'm not coding, I'm probably tinkering with self-hosted services, optimizing something that didn't need optimizing, or finding the loudest button-up at the thrift store.
