Who I am
I’m Patrick Hartley, a driven and adaptable software developer with over 8 years of experience in full-stack development, specializing in creating user-centered applications. I’ve had the privilege of working across diverse industries, including healthcare, government, and consumer applications, and have a proven track record of developing impactful solutions in each.
My Accomplishments
Seed to Spoon App: Contributed 80% of the front-end code and substantial backend work to build the Seed to Spoon app, which was acquired for $1.2 million. This app, now with over 1 million downloads, provides tailored gardening advice to help users manage their gardens more effectively.
GrowBot AI Feature: Designed and implemented GrowBot, a chatbot that uses AI and OCR to provide real-time gardening guidance, reducing support response times from days to seconds. This experience strengthened my skills in AI integration and user experience design.
Government and Healthcare Solutions: Built and maintained internal applications for government clients at My Consulting Group and healthcare solutions at Surgical Care Affiliates. These projects enhanced operational efficiencies, with a focus on secure data handling and user-friendly interfaces.
What I Like
Outside of coding, I’m passionate about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, where I enjoy the discipline and strategy it brings. I’m also a big fan of video games, finding them a great way to unwind and connect with friends. Most importantly, I love spending quality time with my family and exploring new tech that keeps me learning and inspired. Whether it’s trying out the latest gadgets or diving into emerging tech trends, I’m always curious and ready to explore.
