I’m Connor Kaplan, a tech enthusiast who loves to tinker. 👋

As a solution provider working at the apex of new tech, I’m fascinated by how new technology influences user interactions with products. When approaching a new project, my aim is to make my buildouts as user friendly as possible.

Working with me means working with someone dedicated to finding the most creative answers to tech problems. I’m never content going with an established way of doing things when it’s possible to innovate.
