Welcome!

Hi, I'm Kasen Lindquist, a dedicated web developer based in Utah. My journey in web development began in Junior High when I took my first Website Development class. Initially, I joined the class to try something cool and hopefully snag an easy A, but I quickly discovered a passion for creating and coding websites. Although my formal education in web development was somewhat limited, I eagerly sought out resources to expand my knowledge. I learned extensively from platforms like W3Schools, YouTube, and other online communities. This self-driven learning helped me build a solid foundation in web development.

In High School, I discovered the Davis Catalyst Center, a unique school that facilitated transportation for students between their home high schools and specialized career oriented courses at the Catalyst Center. I enrolled in their Web Development program during my first semester, which led me to my first real client, the Kanab Travelers Motel. Despite the motel closing shortly after their website went live, the experience was invaluable.

Since then, I have completed numerous projects, honing my skills and gaining a wealth of experience. My portfolio now includes diverse projects, each reflecting my growth and commitment to becoming a successful web developer.

Professional Experience

Over the years, I've worked on a variety of projects, including the Travelers Motel website and the internship at the Syracuse Emergency Center for Wadman. My expertise includes mostly of web development, but I also have done a bit of construction at the Davis Catalyst Center and an internship. I've worked on a large variety of web development projects thus far, but by far my favorite is Houston Merrill's website. A country singer that I started working for the beginning of this school year.

More About Me

When I'm not coding, you can find me immersed in a variety of activities that keep my life vibrant and balanced. I love playing video games, particularly PUBG, Assassin's Creed (Black Flag is the best!), Red Dead Redemption 2, Call of Duty: Vanguard, and Enlisted. Gaming provides a fantastic way to unwind and explore different worlds and narratives. Also helps me get my mind off code when the problems get frustrating.

I also enjoy connecting with my friends on Discord, where we chat, share memes, and trash talk each other. Spending time with my girlfriend is one of my greatest joys, whether we're out on an adventure or simply enjoying each other's company.

Outdoor activities like camping and hiking are my go-to for recharging and finding inspiration. The beauty of nature never fails to amaze me and provides a perfect backdrop for relaxation and reflection. Every year my dad, my brother, and I go backpacking and have fantastic adventures. Some of my fondest memeories are our most difficult times during backpacking.

One of my other passions is Dungeons & Dragons (D&D). Whether I'm crafting intricate storylines as a Dungeon Master or embarking on epic quests as a player, D&D allows me to exercise my creativity and strategic thinking in a fun and collaborative environment. I'm currently working on making my own complex campaign, it is called the Shattered realm

I come from a close-knit family of six, including my parents, my brother Aidan, and my two sisters, Caitlyn and Hailey.

When it comes to movies, two of my current favorites are 13 Hours in Bengazi and Midway. I love these films for their gripping storytelling, intense action, and historical significance.

Professional Experience

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects, honing my expertise primarily in web development. Below are some of my notable experiences:

I have a passion for trying new things, learning, and experimenting with code. This passion led me to build this website and purchase this domain as a playground for my code. It also serves as a platform to showcase my skills and get my name out there. My portfolio contains more details about my projects and experiences.
