Got three job rejections in one day so: I am asking for help finding a new full-stack web development job. My website/portfolio is available at casey.kolderup.org. I'm a great team member and I've worked at small startups and medium-sized companies with success working across teams and disciplines.

update the thing that's most confusing is "during a flight, cabin crew would take young passengers up to the front of the plane to meet the pilots and look out the front window"
