My name is Chris Pavlovich, and I am from Gig Harbor, Washington. I spent many spring breaks visiting family in Surprise, Arizona and have always loved it here. I graduated from Bellarmine Prep in 2014 and found myself studying at the College of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Oregon State University (OSU) where I met my wife, Erica. We got married a few years later through St. Matthew’s Catholic Church in Hillsboro. While studying at OSU, I worked on campus at the CoSINE Help Desk, supporting faculty across several departments. This opened the door to a Technical Marketing and Engineering position at Intel's Hawthorn Farm campus, where my team and I created marketing demos for all products that contained Intel chips. We also provided technical support for a production lab of about 20 people.
We moved to Arizona and started the business and love every day of it. You can find us up at Scorpion bay enjoying a good cheeseburger on the water, or downtown at a comedy show. My field of study is Computer Science, but my passion is for all types of computer and software engineering. Nothing makes me happier than using my experience to help people be successful with technology.

When deciding on the best platform for your web application, it's crucial to consider how the technology aligns with your business needs. Opting for a custom web application built with Node.js and its extensions offers several significant advantages over using a platform like WordPress.
Node.js uses a non-blocking, event-driven architecture, which makes it highly efficient and capable of handling a large number of simultaneous connections with high throughput.
Custom Node.js applications can be easily scaled both vertically and horizontally to accommodate increasing user loads, ensuring consistent performance as your business grows.
Building with Node.js allows developers to create features specifically designed for your business processes, rather than relying on pre-existing templates or plugins.
Custom applications include only the code and features you need, resulting in a leaner, faster application without the overhead of unused functionalities common in WordPress installations.
Node.js enables the use of JavaScript on both the client and server sides, simplifying development and allowing for code reuse, which can speed up the development process.
With access to npm (Node Package Manager), developers can leverage a vast repository of open-source libraries and modules to enhance functionality without reinventing the wheel.
Custom applications have a smaller attack surface compared to WordPress sites, which are frequently targeted due to their popularity and known vulnerabilities in plugins and themes.
You can implement security measures tailored to your application's specific needs, such as advanced authentication, encryption, and input validation strategies.
Node.js applications can handle high volumes of data and complex computations more efficiently, providing faster response times and a smoother user experience.
Ideal for applications requiring real-time data exchange (like chat apps or live dashboards), Node.js provides robust support through WebSockets and libraries like Socket.IO.
Node.js is well-suited for building microservices, allowing different parts of your application to communicate seamlessly and making it easier to integrate with other services or APIs.
Develop APIs that are precisely aligned with your business logic, facilitating better integration with mobile apps or third-party services.
Custom applications can be easier to maintain over time since you have control over the codebase and are not dependent on third-party plugins that require constant updates.
WordPress sites often suffer from plugin incompatibilities, which can cause site issues and increase maintenance costs.
Having complete ownership over your application's code allows for greater control over future developments, modifications, and optimizations.
You're not restricted by the limitations or changes imposed by platforms like WordPress, giving you the freedom to innovate and adapt as needed.
A custom application enables you to design user interfaces and experiences that are unique to your brand and optimized for your target audience.
Ensure that your application performs well across all devices and screen sizes, providing a consistent experience for all users.
Node.js is continually updated with the latest features and improvements, helping your application stay current with technological advancements.
Benefit from a large and active community of developers who contribute to the Node.js ecosystem, providing support and sharing innovations.
