Bio
👋 I’m Grayson Hicks! I having been making websites since high school, but finally started doing it professionally in 2016 after attending The Iron Yard in Greenville, SC. Since then I’ve worked on education software, and now front-end work for enterprise clients across the world. I’m passionate about all things programming. I currently focus on Javascript, and love absorbing all of the amazing things people are building for the web. I live in the mountains near Brevard, NC with my wife and five children, and when I’m not coding, I’m probably looking for salamanders or working in the garden.
