Resume

Experience

I approach every aspect of my life with the same amount of drive and determination to be the best. I'm not afraid to try something new, and possibly even fail. Even in failure, I've found that I've learned something new; perhaps more than when I'm successful. And with that knowledge, I can go on - to ultimately succeed. I believe this is the essence of Experience: Having done enough wrong to understand what is right. - Chris

Personal qualities

Experience

You can't trust your website to just anyone. You need someone with years of real-world experience.

I have over 20 years experience working with some of the world's largest international e-tailers, and I hand-picked my team of coders and designers from them.

Dedication

I tailor each solution to fit each client, and I genuinely care about your business success. You are my top priority, no matter how large or small the project.

Up-Time

When your site is not working, you are not making money. You need someone who understands that time is money, and downtime is not acceptable.

I'll work round the clock to make sure that your internet properties are running at peak performance.

Lasting Relationships

I build long-term relationships. I'll always be there when you reach out for help.. even after the job is long complete.

Estée Lauder Companies Online
(Digital Producer)

In my seven plus years of digital production, Chris is the best developer I've worked with. Hands down. On top of being a true jack-of-all-trades, he combines proficiency with a forward-thinking, problem-solving mentality and is a huge asset to every project he is a part of.

I have been working with Chris for almost 10 years, and in every single engagement he has delivered top quality and professional work to us and our customers. Chris' passion for technology and finding the right solutions to business challenges have consistently set him apart from other developers and technical leaders. We look forward to many more projects working together!

Gregory Cain

The Crab Place Inc. (CEO)

Chris is fantastic to work with. Very responsive and efficient. Plus, he's able to speak in layman terms so I don't always have to understand the tech lingo involved with the work done on his end. Highly recommend.

Warren Ryd
Warren Ryd

Ryd & Doyle (CEO)

Over the course of my career of twenty five-plus years, I've worked with hundreds of developers. If you ask me "who was the best you've ever worked with", I would immediately respond with "Chris Mincarelli".
Chris combines intelligence, creativity, and work ethic like no one I've ever met. He consistently produces the highest quality deliverables, well-designed and conforming to standards, on-time and in-budget. His code is always clean, tight, well-documented and highly maintainable. He stays up to date on industry trends and new technologies, applying what he learns to his work.
In terms of getting projects done and done right, Chris sets the standard to which I aspire.

Mehmet Bereket
Mehmet Bereket

Director of Production at Estee Lauder Group of Companies

If I had a technology company, I'd make Chris my CTO.
I've worked with him on a number of projects and every interaction I've had has confirmed that he is a superb developer who takes the time to understand and care about the business cases, and the underlying logic of what he's doing. He maintains great vision instead of getting lost in a sea of tickets. To boot, Chris is consistently an early adopter of new technologies and methods. Add a bit of sarcastic wit and voila!
