About
My name is Dan McCarey. I design and build custom data-driven applications.
Whether it's interactive maps, dashboards, or complex visualizations, I create solutions that bring data to life in a user-friendly way.
What sets me apart?
- Holistic approach: I believe that the flow of data—how it's stored, processed, and delivered—directly impacts the user experience. That’s why I handle everything from database design to API development and the frontend, ensuring every piece works together seamlessly.
- Sketching in the browser: Instead of relying on static wireframes, I use live code to design in the browser, making it faster to iterate and ensuring that the design aligns perfectly with the real-world data and functionality.
- Technical foundation: I primarily work with React/Next.js on the frontend and Node.js on the server, often using Python for complex data processing and pipelines.
If you're looking for someone who can take your data and turn it into a functional, beautiful web experience from the ground up, let's chat.
