★ ABOUT ME ★

Hi!! I'm Chuck — an engineer who's been building for the web since back when the internet still made dial-up noises. 💾


These days I'm Head of Engineering at Anagram, where we build security awareness training that doesn't insult the people taking it. Before that I was a partner at Ship Shape (now dormant).


In the open source world I maintain Shepherd.js, a guided product-tour library that's been walking users through software since 2014, and I contribute to Swach.


I'm also the former co-host of "Whiskey Web and Whatnot", a podcast about web development, whiskey, and whatever else comes up, alongside Robbie Wagner. STILL WORTH A LISTEN!!
